The file recorded 1,835 calls tuesday, 2% above the 1,805-call daily average over the previous seven days. Southern led the listed districts. The live feed flagged 82 sensitive calls that are not in the archive.
San Francisco police logged 1,835 dispatched calls in the city's public dispatch archive for September 8, Tuesday. The day before was 1,597.
The most common call types among the published calls were traf violation cite (368), passing call (275), suspicious person (198).
Among published calls with a district, the busiest were Southern (327), Mission (301), Northern (212).
The live dispatch feed flagged 82 more of the day's calls as sensitive, and the city withholds their details. They are not in this archive, so the daily count understates total dispatches.
Dispatch totals measure demand and response workload, not crime rates: a call is a request for service, and an incident report is an allegation until it is resolved.
These briefs are generated from the same public file every day. They are meant to be the shortcut: the city's own portal asks you to page through records one call at a time.
