For Project 3, since we have the freedom to choose the dataset from the Analyze Boston website, we have chosen to work with the CRIME INCIDENT REPORTS dataset. This is a comprehensive database with all the reported crimes that occurred in the districts of Boston. This dataset contains reports on all kinds of incidents ranging from small misdemeanors to serios felonies like manslaughter.
The dataset contains data about the date, time and location that the incident occurred as well as an offense code and description. I intend to utilize this dataset to conduct an analysis as to how the safety standards in the city of Boston have changed over the years.
