Philadelphia Mayor Cherelle Parker’s administration announced a Kensington data dashboard Monday as part of the city’s Philly Stat 360 platform, emphasizing crime and public safety.
The new dashboard provides data on violent crime, property crime, police response times, overdose incidents, and emergency services efforts. It also monitors health, quality of life, and economic opportunity metrics.
Kristin Bray, the mayor’s chief legal counsel and director of Philly Stat 360, said the initiative’s mission is “to ensure transparency and accountability at every step in the process.”
“This is about making the work Mayor Parker's administration is doing in Kensington visible and understandable to everyone … allowing the public to see how resources are being used and track progress we have made thus far,” Bray said.
The data featured on the dashboard is sourced from various city departments and agencies involved in the Kensington Community Revival initiative, according to Philly Stat 360 website.
Residents and other stakeholders are encouraged to explore the dashboard to stay informed and engaged with the ongoing efforts to enhance the Kensington community.
