Break and enter in Medicine Hat

This page reports Break and enter incidents in Medicine Hat, Alberta, using the city's published open-data crime records. The category total is 192 records for 2026, year-to-date through July. That makes up 1.6% of the city's 11,660 incidents in the archive. These counts come from the full on-disk dataset, not the rolling 60-day map window shown elsewhere on the site.

The page also places Break and enter within Medicine Hat's nine published crime categories and shows the year series for the category: 69 records in 2025 and 192 in 2026. Read these with care — 2026 is a partial year through July, and the archive's earliest record is dated 18 October 2025, so the 2025 figure covers only part of that year as well.

How Break and enter compares

Within Medicine Hat's published categories, Break and enter ranks 5th of 9 by incident count. Its count of 192 is lower than the counts for Other (10,261), Mischief (458), Fraud (327), and Assault (308), and higher than Auto theft's 60. At 1.6% of the city total, the category represents a modest slice of the 11,660 incidents published for Medicine Hat. The gap to the leading category is large: Other alone accounts for 10,261 records in the same archive. These comparisons use archive-wide totals, not the rolling 60-day map tier.

Key stats

What these numbers mean

Break and enter sits mid-table in Medicine Hat's open-data feed: 192 records in 2026 year-to-date through July, 1.6% of the city's 11,660 incidents, and 5th among nine categories. The visible change in the series is the difference between 69 records in 2025 and 192 in 2026, but because 2025 coverage starts in October and 2026 runs only through July, the figures are not directly comparable as an annual trend. Even so, the 2026 YTD total already exceeds the full 2025 archive count of 69.

About this dataset

Frequently asked questions about Break and enter in Medicine Hat

How many break and enter incidents were published for Medicine Hat in 2026?

Medicine Hat's open-data archive shows 192 break and enter records for 2026, year-to-date through July. That equals 1.6% of the city's 11,660 published incidents across all categories. The count comes from the full archive rather than the 60-day map window.

Where does break and enter rank among Medicine Hat's crime categories?

Break and enter ranks 5th among the nine published categories, with 192 records. It is below Other (10,261), Mischief (458), Fraud (327), and Assault (308), and above Auto theft (60). The category is a relatively small share of the city feed at 1.6%.

How does the 2026 year-to-date count compare with 2025?

The published series shows 69 break and enter records for 2025 and 192 for 2026 year-to-date through July. The two years are not directly comparable as an annual trend: 2026 is only a partial year, and the archive's earliest record is dated 18 October 2025, so 2025 coverage is partial too.

Is the 192 figure the same as the 60-day map total?

No. The 192 figure is the break and enter category total for 2026 year-to-date through July, drawn from the full open-data archive. The 60-day map window is a separate rolling view and contains 3,947 incidents city-wide across all categories, not just break and enter.
