About 26,989 people work in Southeastern, 4.1 times its 6,527 residents (Census jobs data, 2023). The rates divide by residents only, so they run high here: most people in Southeastern on a weekday live somewhere else. The counts, and how they change from year to year, say more than the rate.
Rates use an estimated population (2020 Census blocks, scaled to today’s city total) of 6,527 for Southeastern. Small areas swing more month to month, so all rates here use a 12-month window ending September 2026.

No chart for violent crime: fewer than 300 incidents in 12 months, too few to show a pattern by hour.
Each line is an average day of that kind, as a multiple of the average hour of the week (dashed line), smoothed over three hours. Days run from 6 am to 6 am, so a Friday night stays on Friday. Times are when the incident happened, as recorded by Baltimore Police Department; 1% of incidents have no usable time (many unknown times are recorded as midnight or noon) and are left out.
