About this data
This page tracks crime reported in Niagara Region, Ontario for the Latest day (2026-10-12), the city's latest exact occurrence day of 2026-10-12. The open-data file records 1 incident for that day, drawn from the official police / municipal open-data portal for Ontario. The single record is classified as Other, which accounts for 1 incident and 100% of the day's file.
The page is useful for checking the most recent daily publication before longer trends are available, and police may still add reports for 2026-10-12 so the count can rise. For context, the interactive map shows 929 incidents in the rolling 60 days, a broader recent window than the single-day headline. Readers can compare the daily count with the 2026 dated file and the full-archive file to see where the latest day sits.
Recent trend
Year-over-year change is not available for the Latest day (2026-10-12) because the year-series file contains only a single year. The dated file lists 1,522 incidents for 2026, with no earlier complete year to form a calendar-year pair. The full-archive file lists 1,670 incidents for 2026, also without a prior-year comparison. That means readers should treat the single-day total of 1 incident as a daily publication snapshot rather than evidence of an annual rise or decline. Additional years of publication would be needed before a calendar-year comparison can be shown for Niagara Region.
Category breakdown
The Latest day (2026-10-12) file contains 1 incident, all recorded under Other, at 1 incident and 100%. No other main categories appear for that day. Because Other groups varied types together, the full-archive breakdown helps explain what sits inside that label. Across the full archive, Other crime accounts for 907 records, representing 100% of Other and 54.3% of the total. The archive parent Other total is 907 records, matching that subcategory file. This means the single-day result of 1 Other record cannot be read as a specific offence type without the finer subcategory detail. The day's mix stands apart from the longer 60-day map window of 929 incidents, which covers a wider publication period.
What this means
What stands out is how quiet the Latest day (2026-10-12) is at 1 incident, compared with 929 incidents in the 60-day map window and 1,522 dated incidents in 2026. The day's entire file is 1 Other record at 100%, so no offence pattern can be read from the single day alone. For context, Other crime holds 907 records in the full archive, or 100% of Other and 54.3% of the total. The full-archive total is 1,670 incidents for 2026.
