I am looking at the Boston Crime data using Python and the endpoint: https://data.cityofboston.gov/resource/29yf-ye7n.json
I want to look at monthly or weekly counts for types of incidents. Could this be useful?

Hello - I want to do this issue as a way to get used with the project. Is there a way one of the admins can walk me through the project to get started?
