About this data
This page displays published crime incident records for Edmonton, Alberta, focusing specifically on the latest single day of reporting, August 26, 2026, designated as Latest day (2026-08-26). Sourced directly from an official police and municipal open-data portal in Alberta, these figures document 185 total incidents recorded across the municipality for that occurrence date. Examining daily incident counts provides timely visibility into local police logs as municipal open-data feeds refresh.
While the interactive map displays a rolling 60 days window comprising 14,066 total incidents, this narrative focuses strictly on the 185 incidents logged during Latest day (2026-08-26).

Recent trend
A year-over-year change is not available for Latest day (2026-08-26) because the headline count represents a single occurrence date, and the year series contains no complete-year comparison pair. The multi-year archive spans 2025 through 2026, documenting 101,406 total incidents in Edmonton across all archived records. Within the calendar-year archive, 2025 concluded with 53,518 recorded incidents, while 2026 has accumulated 47,888 incidents in the full archive (with 41,821 dated incidents in the active series). Because 2026 is an incomplete calendar year and the selected period captures only August 26, 2026, direct annual percentage comparisons are omitted to avoid misleading comparisons.
Category breakdown
For Latest day (2026-08-26), Theft is the leading category in Edmonton with 78 incidents, representing 42.2% of all reported occurrences.

Remaining reported categories for the day comprise Break and enter (19 incidents, 10.3%), Auto theft (13 incidents, 7%), and Fraud (9 incidents, 4.9%).

Why are neighbourhood-level crime breakdowns not shown for Edmonton?
Neighbourhood breakdowns are not available for this source because the municipal open-data feed does not publish standardized neighbourhood boundary identifiers with its incident records. While Edmonton has 185 incidents recorded for 2026-08-26, these entries lack verified community-level tags in the upstream publication. As a result, incident counts can only be reported at the municipal level rather than separated into individual community profiles.

The portal releases public incident records covering municipal occurrences, including the 185 incidents logged for 2026-08-26 and the multi-year archive of 101,406 incidents spanning 2025 through 2026.
