Reported is what the community saw and posted: reports people sent to the Stolen Stuff Hawaii network. They are unverified, and they are always kept separate from the police record.
What it is, and when it begins
These are reports neighbors send to the SSH community. Community reports on file go back to January 2018. Month-by-month figures start in July 2025. Older reports are what people shared at the time, not a complete record, so we do not show them as a trend.
What it can tell you
It can include incidents that never reach a police record, and it holds things no police record does: lost-and-found pets, scam warnings, suspicious activity. When Reported rises and Recorded does not, that gap is worth noticing.
What it cannot tell you
A report is someone's account, not a confirmed incident. We never merge reports with the police record: the same event can appear in both, and adding them would count it twice. We show only totals from community reports, never a post's words, a name, or an address.
