This is a sample. The address is fictional and every figure is illustrative, written to show the shape of a Krokva report on an older, mixed inner-city block. A real report is assembled live from the City of Winnipeg's open data, Statistics Canada and provincial sources — each card names its dataset and date.

No electrical or plumbing permits on record. If the kitchen or bathroom look renovated, the work may have been done without permits — worth asking for paperwork.

Everything the city and the province record about risk on this block — fire and medical calls, police-reported crime, break-ins, overdose response and enforcement. Compared to the neighbourhood the address sits in, and to the city-wide average per neighbourhood.

Runs above the city on property crime and fire calls — typical of a pre-war, part-rental block. Violent crime is closer to average, and the trend is improving.

Every card in a real report carries its dataset and retrieval date. A module that fails to load says so on the page — it never silently disappears.

This is a sample. 418 Chalmers Avenue is a fictional address and every figure on these pages is illustrative, written to show the shape of a Krokva report on an older, mixed block. A real report is assembled from the City of Winnipeg's open data, Statistics Canada census releases and provincial sources, and each card names its source and date.
