About this data
This page covers Burnaby's reported incident totals for 2026 (YTD, through Jul), drawn from the official police open-data feed for British Columbia. The headline count is 1,371 incidents — the full calendar-year-to-date archive total, not the interactive map's rolling 60-day window, which currently shows 446 incidents. These figures provide a year-to-date snapshot of how reported incidents are distributed across the city's open-data record.
The category breakdown for 2026 (YTD, through Jul) lists theft from vehicle, break and enter, and auto theft. This year-to-date view is useful for tracking the mix of reported property incidents across Burnaby's first seven months of 2026, and for placing that mix alongside the 2025 calendar year, when the same feed recorded 2,336 incidents. Because 2026 is still in progress, the current total is not a full annual figure.
Recent trend
Year-over-year change is not available for the 2026 (YTD, through Jul) period. The on-disk archive spans 2025 and 2026, with a full-archive total of 3,707 incidents, but the headline year is still in progress: 2026 is cut off at the end of July, while 2025 is a complete calendar year. The 2025 calendar year recorded 2,336 incidents, and 2026 has reached 1,371 through July; those spans are not directly comparable as an annual trend. A like-for-like year-over-year comparison requires a complete 2026 calendar year.
Category breakdown
For 2026 (YTD, through Jul), the open-data category breakdown lists exactly three categories, all property-related. Theft from vehicle is the most frequently reported, with 749 incidents — 54.6% of the 1,371-incident period total. Break and enter is second, at 480 incidents (35%). Auto theft rounds out the list at 142 incidents (10.4%). Vehicle-related offences hold two of the three positions, and no additional categories are reported for the period. The result is a year-to-date record dominated by theft from vehicle and break and enter, with auto theft the smallest of the three listed categories. These category counts come from the full archive for 2026, not from the 60-day map window.
FAQ
How many incidents were reported in Burnaby in 2026 so far?
Burnaby’s open-data feed records 1,371 reported incidents for 2026, year-to-date through July. That is the headline total for the latest calendar year, drawn from the full 2025–2026 archive. The interactive map’s 60-day window contains 446 incidents, but that is a shorter slice; the 1,371 figure is the year-to-date total.
What is the most common reported incident type in Burnaby?
Theft from vehicle is the leading incident type, with 749 reported incidents in 2026 YTD — about 54.6% of the total. Break and enter follows with 480 incidents (35%), and auto theft is third with 142 (10.4%). These three categories make up the full top-category list published for Burnaby.
Are incident counts up or down compared with last year?
Year-over-year change is not available for the selected period because 2026 is incomplete (YTD through July) and no complete-year pair exists in the archive. The full archive contains 3,707 incidents: 2,336 in 2025 and 1,371 in 2026 so far. That is not a full-year comparison, since 2026 is still open.
Why is there no neighbourhood breakdown for Burnaby?
Neighbourhood-level breakdowns are not published in this source, so no top-neighbourhood counts are shown. The page instead focuses on city-wide figures: 1,371 reported incidents in 2026 YTD and category totals for theft from vehicle, break and enter, and auto theft. Without neighbourhood boundaries in the feed, city-wide and category-level totals are the clearest available view.
Where do the Burnaby incident figures come from?
The figures come from British Columbia’s official police/municipal open-data portal. The archive used for this page contains 3,707 records spanning 2025 and 2026, with incident counts for the categories published in the open layer. This page reports reported-incident counts, not survey estimates.
How current is the Burnaby data?
The newest occurrence date in the dataset is July 31, 2026, so the 2026 totals run through July. The interactive map’s 60-day rolling window currently displays 446 incidents, but that window is separate from the 1,371 incident year-to-date headline. The page will update when later months are added to the archive.
