Short answer
Old North is not one simple crime number.
Here is the honest version: in this data pull, Old North comes in at about 8.2 police calls per 100 home addresses on a yearly pace. The citywide comparison is about 3.8. So yes, this pass shows Old North about 113.9% higher than that citywide house-street comparison.
But that headline number is not the whole story. A lot of the activity sits around certain edges and busier streets. Many of the established residential sections had no mapped calls at all in this pull.
This is not me saying a street is safe or unsafe. It is a practical read of public police-call data, with the limits stated clearly.
What homeowners should take from it
If you own in Old North, the useful point is not "good neighbourhood" or "bad neighbourhood." The useful point is that the exact street matters. A Richmond-facing house, a Huron-edge house, and a quiet interior character-home block are not the same conversation.
In this pass, 64.3% of the larger Old North street sections had zero mapped calls. That is why I would explain Old North block by block: strong, quiet pockets are real, but the busier edges should not be glossed over.
Top current call types
The most common Old North labels in this pull were: Theft (32), Vandalism (24), Burglary from Motor Vehicle (16), THEFT FROM M.V. UNDER $5000 (6), Burglary - Residential (5), Assault - Simple (2). I would treat those as police-call labels, not the final word on what happened in every case.
