# What are the exact boundary semantics of the Anonymous +Residential Realtime feed's 5-minute window?

The window is inclusive of the start time and exclusive of the end time. For example, the file at /v2/anonymous-residential/realtime/<YYYYMMDD>/1300.json.gz covers detections from 12:55:00 up to and including 12:59:59 UTC — 13:00:00 is not included and appears in the next file (1305.json.gz) instead. When consuming consecutive 5-minute files, each detection belongs to exactly one file, so there's no gap or double-processing at the boundary between files.
