Calgary crime 2024

Calgary recorded 2,009 reported incidents in the 2024 open-data year. That figure is the complete calendar-year total for 2024 in this dataset and represents the only year currently on file for Calgary. This page covers the breakdown of those incidents by category, with break and enter leading at 563 reports, followed by assault at 503 and theft from vehicle at 498.

These numbers describe reported crimes only, not convictions, and are drawn from Calgary's open-data records. Because the dataset contains a single year (2024), the page focuses on what that year alone shows rather than a multi-year comparison. Auto theft (348) and robbery (97) complete the top five categories.

Year-over-year

The 2024 Calgary tally of 2,009 incidents is the only year in the current dataset, so no year-over-year comparison is possible. Within that year, property-related offences dominate the top five: break and enter accounts for 563 incidents, theft from vehicle for 498, and auto theft for 348. Assault (503) is the leading person-related category, while robbery adds 97. These figures represent the full calendar-year archive rather than a partial map window. With only one year on file, the 2024 counts serve as the baseline for Calgary's open-data series.

Key stats

What these numbers mean

With only one year in Calgary's current archive, 2024 is both the first and only point of comparison. The top five categories are heavily property-oriented: break and enter (563), theft from vehicle (498), and auto theft (348) dominate the property side, while assault (503) is the largest person-related offence. Robbery's 97 reports round out the list. No multi-year trend is visible from this single-year snapshot, so the notable feature is the rank order within 2024 itself.

About this dataset

Frequently asked questions about Calgary crime in 2024

What is the total number of reported incidents in Calgary for 2024?

Calgary's 2024 open-data archive contains 2,009 reported incidents. That is the full calendar-year total for this year in the current dataset, and it represents 100% of the city-wide archive because 2024 is the only year present. The dataset includes no other years for comparison.

Is crime increasing or decreasing in Calgary?

The dataset contains only one year—2024—so there is no prior-year figure to compare and no trend direction can be established from this archive. The 2024 total of 2,009 incidents stands alone as a baseline. Any discussion of rising or falling counts would require additional years of data.

Which crime category was most common in Calgary in 2024?

Break and enter was the top category in Calgary in 2024, with 563 reported incidents. Assault followed at 503, theft from vehicle at 498, auto theft at 348, and robbery at 97. These five categories make up the year's leading reported offences in the city's open-data archive.

Where does the data come from?

These figures are drawn from Calgary's open-data records for Alberta (AB). The 2024 count of 2,009 represents the full calendar-year archive for that year in this dataset. Population data is not included, so these are incident counts rather than rates. The counts reflect reported incidents only.
