About this data

This page tracks reported crime for Oakville, Ontario for the Latest day (2026-10-12), based on Halton Regional Police Service open data. The headline total is 3 incidents recorded for 2026-10-12, which represents the city's latest occurrence day in the feed. Oakville is published as part of the Halton Region feed, with municipality pages split from the regional open layer.

This day-level view is useful for seeing what was recorded most recently, with the understanding that police may still add reports for 2026-10-12 so the count of 3 can rise. It differs from the interactive map's rolling 60 days window, which holds 476 incidents, and from longer archive totals. Daily counts help neighbours compare the latest mix with broader patterns without treating a single day as an annual picture.

Recent trend

Year-over-year change is not available for the Latest day (2026-10-12) because there is no complete calendar-year pair to compare for this daily snapshot. The multi-year series lists 2,362 incidents for 2025 and 2,436 incidents for 2026, but 2026 remains open and the headline figure of 3 covers only 2026-10-12. The full archive separately holds 4,863 incidents across 2025 to 2026, with yearly counts of 2,362 for 2025 and 2,501 for 2026. Those archive figures provide calendar context only and are not a daily change measure.

Category breakdown

For the Latest day (2026-10-12), Oakville's 3 incidents were evenly split among three categories. Auto theft recorded 1 incident, or 33.3 percent of the day's total, while Break and enter also recorded 1 incident, or 33.3 percent. Other accounted for the remaining 1 incident, or 33.3 percent. For context, the full-archive breakdown of the Other parent count of 1,486 records is led by Impaired & dangerous driving with 1,326 records, or 89.2 percent of Other and 27.3 percent of the archive total. That broader mix, including 87 Weapons offences and 59 Drugs records, describes the archive rather than the single-day distribution.

Where incidents concentrate

At the neighbourhood level, the 3 incidents on 2026-10-12 were recorded in three of Oakville's 9 neighbourhood areas. North Central Oakville recorded 1 incident, River Oaks recorded 1 incident, and South West Oakville recorded 1 incident. With one record in each area, the day shows an even spread rather than concentration in a single neighbourhood. These figures reflect where reports were located on that date and are incident counts, not per-capita comparisons, so they do not measure risk relative to resident numbers.

What this means

What stands out for Oakville is how small the Latest day (2026-10-12) was, with just 3 incidents split evenly among Auto theft, Break and enter and Other at 1 record and 33.3 percent each, and one record each in North Central Oakville, River Oaks and South West Oakville. That single-day even split contrasts with the wider archive, where Impaired & dangerous driving dominates the Other grouping with 1,326 records, or 89.2 percent of Other. The map's 476 incidents over 60 days further shows daily counts are a narrow slice.

FAQ

How many incidents were recorded in Oakville on the latest day?
Oakville recorded 3 incidents on 2026-10-12, which is the city's latest reporting day in the open file. The day's mix was 1 auto theft, 1 break and enter and 1 Other, each listed at 33.3%. Police may still add late reports for that date, so the count of 3 can rise slightly as records are processed.

What was the most common type of incident that day?
No single category led on 2026-10-12, with auto theft, break and enter and Other tied at 1 incident each. For context, the full-archive Other total is 1,486 incidents, led by impaired and dangerous driving with 1,326 records, or 89.2% of Other. Weapons offences added 87 and drugs added 59 in that same archive breakdown.

Are incidents going up or down compared with last year?
Year-over-year change is not available for this period because 2026 remains incomplete. The archive series lists 2,362 incidents in 2025 and 2,501 incidents in 2026 to date, while the year-series file shows 2,436 dated records for 2026. A direct annual comparison would compare a complete year with a partial year, so it is not published.

Which neighbourhoods had the most incidents on the latest day?
Three Oakville neighbourhoods each recorded 1 incident on 2026-10-12: North Central Oakville, River Oaks and South West Oakville. With only 3 incidents spread evenly, no single neighbourhood accounted for more than the others. The open file divides Oakville into 9 neighbourhood areas for mapping, and all other areas recorded no incidents on that reporting day.

Where does this Oakville data come from?
The figures come from Halton Regional Police Service open data, with Oakville records split from the Halton Region regional feed. Oakville is shown alongside Burlington, Milton and Halton Hills in that regional system. Counts reflect what the service published openly, not unofficial reports, and municipal boundaries follow the service's geographic split for the three-incident latest day.

How up to date is this information?
The latest occurrence date in the file is 2026-10-12, labelled as Latest day (2026-10-12). That 3-incident day is separate from the interactive map's rolling 60 days, which holds 476 incidents. The year file also holds 2,436 dated records for 2026. Late reports can still be added for the latest day, so that small count may be revised.
