About this data
This page summarises reported incidents in Newmarket for 2026 (YTD, through Jul) using open data published by York Regional Police. The headline figures – 2,583 total incidents, including 469 violent-category incidents – reflect the latest calendar-year open-data archive, cut at the last complete month, not the interactive map's rolling 60-day window. The map window shows 676 incidents over the most recent 60 days, a separate view for exploring recent activity.
York Regional Police covers Newmarket as part of York Region, and the municipality's page is split from the regional open layer. These counts are drawn from official police open data, which can be a useful baseline for residents, planners and researchers tracking property crime, person offences and disorder patterns over time. Because this is a year-to-date snapshot, comparisons with earlier years should account for the incomplete 2026 coverage.
Recent trend
Looking at complete calendar years in the York Regional Police open-data archive, Newmarket's totals climbed from 3,349 in 2021 to 4,663 in 2024. In 2025, the count fell 5.7% to 4,399, the first full-year decline after that run of increases. The 2026 year-to-date figure of 2,583 covers only January through July, so it is not a full-year total. Year-over-year change for the 2026 selected period is therefore not available; the most recent comparable full-year pair is 2025 versus 2024.
Category breakdown
Theft is the most common reported category in Newmarket's 2026 year-to-date open data, with 779 incidents (30.2% of the 2,583 total). Other ranks second at 649 (25.1%), followed by assault at 429 (16.6%). Fraud (270, 10.5%), mischief (202, 7.8%) and break and enter (98, 3.8%) complete the top six. The Other bucket groups many incident types; across the full archive, its largest subcategory is threats, at 1,596 records, or 25.3% of Other. Harassment follows within that archive slice at 1,031 (16.4% of Other). Threats and harassment under Other are person offences drawn from open-data parent categories, not physical assault. So 'Other' is not simply unexplained residual crime in this source.

Where does this Newmarket incident data come from?
The counts come from York Regional Police open data, split out from the York Region regional feed to Newmarket. The same regional source also covers Vaughan, Markham, Richmond Hill, Aurora, Georgina, East Gwillimbury, Whitchurch-Stouffville, and King. Figures are reported incident counts from the open-data archive, not population-based calculations.
How current is the Newmarket data on this page?
The headline period is 2026 year-to-date through July, from the latest calendar year in the archive. The underlying archive's newest record date is Aug 14, 2026. The interactive map's 60-day window is a separate rolling view and should not be treated as the year-to-date total.
