About this data

The page presents open‑data incident totals for Cowley, Alberta for the 2026 year‑to‑date period, covering incidents reported up to July 2026. All counts are drawn from the province’s official police open‑data portal. The dataset includes a single recorded incident – a theft from vehicle that occurred on 23 July 2026.

These figures reflect the full calendar‑year archive cut at the most recent complete month, not the 60‑day rolling map view that also shows one incident. The YTD totals give residents and analysts a snapshot of reported offences so far in the current year, establishing a baseline for future monitoring.

Recent trend

Year‑over‑year change cannot be calculated for the 2026 YTD period because the year‑series contains only a single year of data. Without a prior complete‑year comparison, no percentage change is available, and the headline total should be viewed as the current snapshot rather than a trend.

Category breakdown

For the 2026 YTD period in Cowley, the sole reported offence is Theft from vehicle, accounting for the entire count of incidents. This single incident represents 100 % of all recorded activity. No other crime categories appear in the data, and there is no “Other” grouping to explain additional sub‑categories.

Key stats

  • Total incidents (2026 YTD): 1

  • Theft from vehicle incidents: 1 (100 % of total)
  • Map‑window (60‑day) total incidents: 1

What these numbers mean

Cowley’s 2026 year‑to‑date open‑data snapshot contains only one recorded incident, a theft from vehicle on 23 July 2026, and no violent offences. With a 100 % share for that single category, the data offer limited insight into broader crime patterns, underscoring the need for additional reporting over the remainder of the year to identify any emerging trends.

About this dataset

  • Reporting basis: Counts reflect incidents reported to police only. Under-reporting — especially for sexual assault, fraud, and minor theft — means actual incidence is higher than these figures show.
  • Not a per-capita rate: These are absolute incident counts. Comparing one place’s counts to another without normalising for population can mislead — see the Crime Severity Index for severity-weighted, population-adjusted rankings.
  • Privacy: Coordinates on the map are rounded to roughly 111 m so individual addresses cannot be inferred.
  • Data window: 2026 (YTD, through Jul).

Frequently asked questions about crime in Cowley

The open‑data total for the selected period is 1 incident, with the most recent record dated 2026‑07‑23. This figure reflects the full calendar‑year archive cut at the last complete month, not the interactive 60‑day map window.

Did crime incidents increase or decrease compared to the previous year in Cowley?

A year‑over‑year comparison is not available for the 2026 YTD period because the dataset does not contain a prior‑year total for the same incomplete timeframe. Consequently, we cannot state whether incidents have risen or fallen relative to the previous year.

Why aren’t there neighbourhood‑level crime statistics for Cowley?

Neighbourhood‑level breakdowns are not provided for Cowley because the underlying open data set does not include incident counts broken down by neighbourhood. Without such granularity, a neighbourhood‑specific chart cannot be generated, so the page notes that neighbourhood statistics are unavailable for this municipality.

What is the source of Cowley’s crime data?

The incident counts come from the official municipal open‑data portal for Alberta, which publishes police‑reported crime information for Cowley. Since the police service name is not specified in the source, the data are attributed to the province’s open‑data system (AB).

How up‑to‑date is the Cowley crime data shown here?

The most recent record in Cowley’s dataset is dated 2026‑07‑23, and the selected period covers the year‑to‑date through July. The interactive map, however, uses a rolling 60‑day window that also shows a total of 1 incident. Thus the open‑data totals and the map window reflect the same single incident up to the latest date.
