Mississauga crime 2026

In 2026, Mississauga registered 6,715 reported incidents in the municipal open-data dataset. This annual figure accounts for 15.8% of the city's 42,440 cumulative recorded incidents spanning from 2023 to 2026. Among the primary categories logged during 2026, assault was the most frequent with 1,622 incidents, followed by auto theft with 1,506 incidents and mischief with 1,362 incidents.

The 2026 dataset represents an ongoing, partial reporting year rather than a complete twelve-month summary. The 6,715 incidents recorded to date compare directly against the 12,385 incidents documented across the full calendar year of 2025. Annual dataset counts reflect administrative logging activity and reporting practices rather than individual risk.

Year-over-year

Across the four-year dataset from 2023 to 2026, Mississauga logged a total of 42,440 reported incidents. Annual counts stood at 9,659 in 2023, reached 13,681 in 2024, and recorded 12,385 in 2025. The 2026 total of 6,715 ranks fourth among the four recorded years. Because 2026 remains an active, partial reporting year, comparing this raw count to the full 12,385 incidents in 2025 reflects incomplete data collection rather than an annual decline. Annual totals represent police reporting volume across Mississauga rather than population-adjusted risk metrics.
