Newmarket crime 2026

York Regional Police open-data records for Newmarket show 2,679 reported incidents in 2026 so far, the sixth year covered by the city's archive. The raw count is below the 4,399 incidents recorded during all of 2025, but the 2026 reporting window is still in progress, so this is not a like-for-like annual comparison. No percentage change is calculated for this open year.

Theft is the leading category this year with 806 records, followed by Other at 673 and Assault at 445. Fraud accounts for 280, Mischief for 210, and Break and enter for 102. This year's 2,679 records represent 11.4% of the 23,600 Newmarket incidents in the full archive.

Year-over-year

Because 2026 is a partial reporting year, the 2,679 incidents logged so far should be read as a year-to-date figure, not a full-year total. By comparison, Newmarket's 2025 archive year closed at 4,399 incidents, the second-highest annual count in the city's six-year series. Earlier years in the archive are 3,349 (2021), 3,877 (2022), 4,633 (2023), and 4,663 (2024). With 2026 still underway, only raw counts are shown; no percentage change is calculated for an open year.

Key stats

What these numbers mean

In Newmarket's 2026 records, theft stands out at 806 incidents, ahead of the Other category's 673 and Assault's 445. The Other total is not residual: it includes Threats (158) and Harassment (102), both person offences reported through open data. Fraud (280), Mischief (210), and Break and enter (102) round out the top six. The 2026 count ranks sixth among the six archive years, but because the year is still in progress, that position reflects the reporting window rather than a completed annual trend.
