About this data
This page covers reported crime in Amherstburg, Ontario, for April 2016, when 45 incidents were recorded as the last complete calendar month with published counts. The information comes from the official police and municipal open-data portal for Ontario, reflecting incidents dated between January 25, 2016 and April 20, 2016 in the downloadable file. It provides a month-level snapshot rather than a full-year total.
The broader 2016 file contains 158 dated records, with the category mix shown for 2016 to give context for the April figure. The interactive map uses a separate 60-day rolling window with 110 incidents, so its total will differ from the April 2016 headline. Together, the month count and full-year breakdown help readers see both recent volume and the types of offences reported.
Recent trend
Year-over-year change is not available for April 2016 because the year series contains only 2016, with 158 dated records, so there is no complete prior year to compare. The April headline of 45 incidents is a single calendar month and cannot be compared to a full annual total. The dated range from January 25, 2016 to April 20, 2016 reflects partial-year coverage in the file, not a full 12 months. A meaningful annual comparison will require additional calendar years in the series.
Category breakdown
The 2016 category mix behind the April 2016 headline is led by Theft with 78 records, or 49.4%, followed by Other with 48 records, or 30.4%, and Mischief with 19 records, or 12%. Further down the 2016 list are Assault with 6 records, or 3.8%, and Break and enter with 6 records, or 3.8%, plus Auto theft with 1 record, or 0.6%. Within Other, Other crime accounts for 24 records, or 50% of Other and 15.2% of the total, with Harassment next at 12 records. These category counts describe the 2016 file of 158 dated records, not the 45 incidents from April alone.
What this means
Amherstburg's April 2016 snapshot of 45 incidents sits within a 2016 file dominated by Theft at 78 records and 49.4%, with Other next at 48 records and 30.4%. What stands out is how little of the mix is violent: Assault accounts for 6 records and 3.8%, matching Break and enter. Within Other, Other crime leads with 24 records, or 50% of Other, while Harassment adds 12 records, showing person-related reports sit outside Assault rather than as unexplained remainder. Mischief at 19 records and 12% rounds out the property pattern.
FAQ
How many incidents were reported in Amherstburg in April 2016?
Open data shows 45 incidents for April 2016 in Amherstburg, which is the last complete calendar month in this feed. The broader 2016 file contains 158 dated incidents recorded between 25 January 2016 and 20 April 2016. The April figure is a calendar-month count, not the interactive map window.
What type of incident was most common in Amherstburg's 2016 data?
Theft was the most common category in the 2016 mix, with 78 records accounting for 49.4% of the 158 dated incidents. Other was second at 48 records, led by Other crime with 24 records and Harassment with 12 records. These category counts describe the full 2016 file, not just the 45 incidents in April 2016.
Has the number of incidents gone up or down compared to last year?
Year-over-year change is not available for this period for Amherstburg. The archive series provided contains only 2016, with 158 dated incidents in that year, so there is no complete prior year to compare. The April 2016 count of 45 cannot be treated as an annual change against a full year.
Why can't I see a breakdown by neighbourhood for Amherstburg?
Neighbourhood breakdowns are not available for this Amherstburg source, so all 158 dated incidents from 2016 and the 45 incidents in April 2016 are shown at the city level only. The feed did not publish sub-area boundaries or counts that allow a neighbourhood split. City-wide totals and categories remain the reliable view here.
Where does this Amherstburg data come from?
The figures come from the official police and municipal open-data portal for Ontario, as compiled for CrimeMaps. Amherstburg totals reflect published occurrence records, including 45 incidents in April 2016 and 158 dated incidents in 2016 overall. Police calls that are not crimes, such as bylaw matters and collisions, are excluded from these counts.
How current is the Amherstburg data shown here?
The statistics are current through April 2016, the last complete calendar month in the feed, with the latest occurrence dated 20 April 2016. Separately, the interactive map shows a rolling 60-day window with 110 incidents. That map view is more recent in structure but different from the 45-incident April 2016 headline.
