About this data

Woodstock's 2019 crime-incident page draws on the official police or municipal open-data portal for Ontario, presenting 2,426 reported records for the full calendar year. The largest slice of the feed falls under an "Other" grouping, which the portal breaks into subcategories such as calls for service, traffic incidents, bylaw and provincial offences, drugs, harassment, and weapons offences. These are raw open-data counts, not population-adjusted values.

This annual snapshot is useful for understanding the broad composition of Woodstock's reported incidents in 2019: theft, mischief, and break-and-enter sit beside the large residual category, and the subcategory breakdown shows what sits inside it. The page's totals describe the complete year, while the interactive map's rolling 60-day window offers a shorter, separate view of recent records.

Recent trend

Year-over-year change is not available for Woodstock's 2019 total because the year series used for this page contains a single complete year, 2019, with 2,426 dated records. With no adjacent year to compare, no annual increase or decrease can be calculated. The 2019 figure is a full calendar-year count drawn from the archive, not a partial-year estimate and not the shorter 60-day map window. This means the headline total should be read as a standalone annual snapshot rather than as evidence of a trend.

Category breakdown

For 2019, the most common open-data category in Woodstock is Other, with 2,020 records, or 83.3% of the 2,426 total. Inside that grouping, Calls for service is the largest slice: 965 incidents, equal to 47.8% of Other and 39.8% of all 2019 records. Theft is the second-ranked main category at 256 incidents (10.6%), followed by Mischief at 47 (1.9%). Assault appears next with 43 records (1.8%), and Break and enter follows with 40 (1.6%). Because the source groups many incident types under Other, the subcategory detail matters: Traffic & MVC adds 458 records and Bylaw & Provincial adds 396. Harassment (20) sits inside Other as a person-offence record and is not physical assault.
