About this data
This page tracks reported crime in Clarington, Ontario for the latest day, 2026-10-12, using Durham Regional Police Service open data shared through the Durham Region feed. The headline total for that day is 3 incidents, with 2 recorded as Assault and 1 recorded as Other. Neighbourhood counts for the day span 7 neighbourhood areas, with records in Bowmanville North, Bowmanville South and Darlington.
Reviewing the single-day mix is useful because it shows exactly what was published for Clarington's most recent occurrence day, before additional reports may be added. For context, the interactive map shows 145 incidents in its rolling 60 days window, which is separate from the 3-incident daily headline. Readers can compare Clarington with nearby Oshawa, Whitby and Ajax within the same regional open layer.
Recent trend
Year-over-year change is not available for the Latest day (2026-10-12) period, since a single-day headline cannot be compared to a complete calendar year. The on-disk archive for Clarington spans 2016 to 2026, with 473 incidents listed for 2025 and 543 incidents listed for 2026 in the year series, alongside 1 incident in 2016 and 6 incidents in 2024. The full archive holds 1,060 incidents in total. Because 2026 remains open and daily totals can still be updated, no annual change figure is published for this selected day.
Category breakdown
For Latest day (2026-10-12), Clarington's 3 incidents break down as 2 Assault cases, accounting for 66.7% of the day, and 1 Other case, accounting for 33.3%. Assault is therefore the most common category for this single-day snapshot, with Other second. Separately, the full-archive breakdown of Other totals 146 incidents, all attributed to Impaired & dangerous driving, representing 100% of Other and 13.8% of the archive total. That archive pattern helps explain what the source groups under Other, but it is not the day's mix. The day's published mix contains no additional categories beyond those two entries.
Where incidents concentrate
On 2026-10-12, reported incidents were spread evenly with 1 incident each in Bowmanville North, Bowmanville South and Darlington. No single neighbourhood dominated the 3-incident day, and Clarington's file lists 7 neighbourhood areas in total. This reflects where the published reports were located on that date, showing activity concentration rather than per-capita risk. Because daily counts are small and can shift with each update, neighbourhood comparisons are most useful alongside the larger 60 days map window with 145 incidents and longer archive totals.
What this means
What stands out is how small the Latest day (2026-10-12) snapshot is: 3 incidents, with 2 Assault cases at 66.7% and 1 Other case at 33.3%, spread as single reports in Bowmanville North, Bowmanville South and Darlington. That even split means no neighbourhood pattern emerges from the day alone. For context, the full archive's 146 Other incidents are all Impaired & dangerous driving, or 13.8% of the archive total, while the map's 60 days window holds 145 incidents.
