Red Deer crime overview
Essay updated 2026-10-13 · figures above are from the latest data
TL;DR. Red Deer recorded 245 incidents in September 2026, based on RCMP K-Division open data. The feed covers property offences only; person crimes are not published on this layer. Theft leads the 2026 year-to-date mix through September with 595 records (34.5%), followed by mischief at 520. The September headline is a calendar-month count, not a full-year total, and neighbourhood breakdowns are not available for this source.
About this data
This page tracks property crime reported in Red Deer, Alberta, for September 2026, when RCMP K-Division open data published 245 incidents for the calendar month. The open feed for Red Deer comes from the RCMP K-Division public point layer attributed to the census subdivision, and covers property offences only — break and enter, theft, auto theft, theft from vehicle and mischief. Assault, robbery, homicide and other person crimes are not published on this layer, so absence from the map is not evidence they did not occur.
This breakdown helps Red Deer residents and businesses see what was reported in the last complete calendar month, separate from the year-to-date mix. The broader 2026 year-to-date file through September holds 1,725 dated incidents, while the interactive map shows a rolling 60 days with 538 incidents. Comparing the fixed September count with the rolling map window helps explain why totals can differ between the table and the map.
Recent trend
Year-over-year change is not available for September 2026. The archive series used for trend comparison contains only 2026, with 1,725 dated incidents in that single year, so there is no complete prior calendar year to compare against. The full on-disk archive similarly holds only 2026, with 1,781 incidents in total, and no complete-year pair. As additional months are published for Red Deer, a September-to-September or full-year comparison will become possible, but the current September 2026 count of 245 stands alone without a percentage change.
Category breakdown
The category mix shown here reflects the broader 2026 year-to-date file through September, with 1,725 dated incidents, not September alone. Theft leads that year-to-date mix with 595 incidents, or 34.5%, followed by Mischief with 520 incidents, or 30.1%, and Theft from vehicle with 257 incidents, or 14.9%. Break and enter adds 223 incidents, or 12.9%, while Auto theft accounts for 130 incidents, or 7.5%. Together the profile is centred on theft-related and mischief files published through the RCMP K-Division property-only layer, which does not include person crimes. Readers looking at September 2026 should use the monthly total of 245 incidents as the headline, and use these year-to-date shares only to understand the longer pattern.
What this means
Red Deer’s September 2026 file totals 245 incidents, while the year-to-date pattern is clear: Theft at 595 incidents and Mischief at 520 incidents lead the 2026 mix through September, with Theft from vehicle at 257 incidents next. Break and enter at 223 incidents and Auto theft at 130 incidents make up the remainder of the property-only feed. Readers should remember this layer excludes person crimes entirely, so the story here is which property files lead, not overall safety.
FAQ
How many crime incidents were reported in Red Deer in September 2026?
Red Deer recorded 245 incidents in September 2026, which was the last complete calendar month with published counts. The broader 2026 open-data file holds 1,725 dated incidents through September. Those figures cover property offences only from the RCMP feed, including theft, mischief and break and enter. This total is the monthly count, not the interactive map's rolling window.
What is the most common crime category in Red Deer?
Theft is the most common category in the 2026 year-to-date mix through September, with 595 incidents representing 34.5% of the 1,725 dated incidents. Mischief ranks second with 520 incidents. The feed covers five property categories only, so theft leads that property-only set. Assault, robbery and other person crimes are not published on this layer.
Is crime in Red Deer going up or down compared to last year?
Year-over-year change is not available for this period because the on-disk archive contains only 2026, with 1,725 dated incidents and a full-archive total of 1,781 incidents for 2026. With no complete prior year to compare, a calendar-year change cannot be calculated from this feed. September 2026 itself recorded 245 incidents.
Which Red Deer neighbourhoods have the most crime?
Neighbourhood breakdowns are not available for this source. The RCMP K-Division public point layer for Red Deer is spatially attributed to a Statistics Canada census subdivision rather than neighbourhood boundaries, so no ranked neighbourhood table can be shown. The city total for September 2026 is 245 incidents, and the 2026 year-to-date file holds 1,725 dated incidents.
Where does Red Deer crime data come from?
The figures come from RCMP K-Division open data via the public point layer attributed to Red Deer, Alberta. The layer publishes property offences only: break and enter, theft, auto theft, theft from vehicle and mischief. In the 2026 year-to-date mix, theft from vehicle totalled 257 incidents and break and enter totalled 223 incidents.
How current is the Red Deer crime data?
The open file spans March 17, 2026 to October 6, 2026, with September 2026 as the last complete calendar month at 245 incidents. The interactive map uses a separate rolling 60 days with 538 incidents, which differs from the monthly headline. Police may still add reports, so recent counts can be revised as the RCMP feed is updated.
