Recent trend

Key stats

What these numbers mean

Burnaby's 60-day snapshot is dominated by property crime, with theft from vehicles alone accounting for more than half of all incidents. The absence of violent crime in this dataset is notable, though it reflects only a two-month window. The concentration of break-and-enter and auto theft suggests targeted prevention efforts in these areas could yield measurable reductions. With no prior-year data, it is unclear whether this distribution is typical or an outlier.
