About this data

Brantford recorded 314 police-reported incidents in July 2026, according to records published through the municipal open-data portal in Ontario. This monthly count reflects all published occurrences across the municipality for that specific calendar month. Tracking monthly incident counts provides residents, business owners, and community groups with a transparent view of recent local activity, establishing a clear baseline for tracking police-recorded events across the city.

While July 2026 saw 314 incidents, the interactive map displays 624 incidents across its rolling 60 days window. The wider 2026 (YTD, through Jul) open-data profile tracks 1,505 dated incidents, offering a broader category breakdown. Following these monthly figures helps community members observe which offence categories appear most frequently in published police records throughout the year.

Recent trend

Year-over-year change is not available for July 2026 because the open-data series currently contains only 2026 records and does not yet include a prior complete-year comparison pair. The 2026 year series contains 1,505 dated incidents in the primary series and 1,609 total incidents in the archive, which spans from 2026 to 2026. Because complete multi-year baseline figures are not yet published in this open dataset, annual percentage trends cannot be calculated. Incident tracking will establish comparative historical trends as additional complete calendar years are recorded.

Category breakdown

The category mix for 2026 (YTD, through Jul) shows Theft as the leading category with 762 incidents, representing 50.6% of reported occurrences.

Property and financial offences comprise a substantial share of reported activity, with Auto theft contributing 147 incidents (9.8%) and Break and enter adding 83 incidents (5.5%).
