About crime in Espanola

Theft follows with 29 incidents, while mischief and break‑and‑enter represent 19 and 4 incidents respectively. Violent offences total only two incidents, both classified as assault.

About this data
Espanola's 2015 crime open-data page covers the 472 incidents recorded in the official police open-data feed for the Ontario municipality during the complete calendar year. The feed groups incidents into a small set of categories, with "Other" accounting for 417 incidents (88.3%); this page also breaks that Other group into the same subcategories available on the interactive map, such as Traffic & MVC, Calls for service, and Bylaw & Provincial. The figures are year totals, not the rolling 60-day map window, which currently displays 344 incidents over a different period.
Reading the breakdown helps residents and local analysts see what sits behind the headline category labels rather than treating "Other" as a residual catch-all. With neighbourhood-level slices not available in this source, the category and date context is the main way to interpret the 2015 open data.
Recent trend
Year-over-year change is not available for 2015 because the year series on this page contains only one year, so there is no complete-year pair to compare. The 472 incidents represent the complete 2015 calendar year, not the interactive map's 60-day window, which shows 344 incidents for a different, rolling date range. Since no prior-year count is present in this series, no percentage change or directional shift is reported. Treat the figures as a single-year snapshot of reported incidents in the Espanola open-data layer.
