About this data
This page tracks reported crime for Brantford, Ontario, focused on September 2026, when 395 incidents were published in the open-data feed. The window runs from March 10, 2026 to September 26, 2026 for dated records, with September as the last complete calendar month. You can explore the same incidents on the interactive map and filter by offence type and date.
Figures come from the official police / municipal open-data portal for Ontario. These are incident counts, not crime rates. The 395 total is September 2026 only, while the category mix reflects 2026 year-to-date through September, totalling 2,230 published dated incidents. For context, the interactive map shows a rolling 60-day view with 770 incidents, a separate different cut than the monthly headline.
Recent trend
Year-over-year change is not available for September 2026 because the archive series contains only 2026, with 2,230 records, and no complete prior year to compare. Dated records in the current feed span March 10, 2026 to September 26, 2026, covering year-to-date activity through September. The 395-incident headline is the last complete calendar month, not a full annual total, so it cannot be compared to a full year as an annual change. As more complete calendar years are published for Brantford, a like-for-like annual comparison will become possible.
Category breakdown
The 2026 year-to-date mix through September, totalling 2,230 dated incidents, is led by Theft with 1,149 records, or 51.5% of the year-to-date total. Assault follows with 371 records, or 16.6%, and Fraud is third with 325 records, or 14.6%. The remainder of the published mix is Auto theft with 210 records, or 9.4%, Break and enter with 141 records, or 6.3%, and Robbery with 34 records, or 1.5%. Violent-category incidents in the same year-to-date span total 405 across assault, robbery and related offences. These category counts describe the year-to-date period, not September 2026 alone, which recorded 395 incidents as a separate monthly headline.
What this means
Brantford's 2026 year-to-date data through September stands out for a property-led mix, with Theft at 1,149 records or 51.5% of 2,230 dated incidents.
