I don't understand this bit of copy, however:

The top twenty neighborhoods for DUI convictions are spread across the city, with a few notable outliers on our list of convictions: West Town and Lincoln Square.

To me, they seem spread across the North/South axis of the city, but they seem concentrated on the West Side, except for Uptown. I don't see what's special about West Town and Lincoln Square.

The DUI table has been added in 3c0ffe0. I'm changing the title of this issue to reflect the outstanding question about the mention of West Town and Lincoln Square.

I added this mention because I felt like we needed to highlight in some way that areas such as West Town and Lincoln Square, which otherwise have few convictions, have a large number of DUI convictions.

How about this rephrasing:

The top twenty neighborhoods for DUI convictions are spread across the city, with a particular concentration on the West Side. Two neighborhoods that saw relatively few convictions for other crimes - West Town and Lincoln Square - had a high number of convictions.

Let me know what you think, and I'll make the change.

Maybe we should actually calculate the % of all convictions in that community area.
