This page examines Windsor’s 2025 open-data incident counts: the six leading categories, the composition of the large Other category, and how the year compares with 2024 and the rest of the archive. It also highlights notable subcategories, such as Traffic & MVC accounting for 6,832 of Other’s 7,640 records, and notes where the data comes from. All figures are reported incident counts from the City of Windsor’s open-data portal, not per-capita rates. Year-over-year changes reflect reporting, not per-capita risk.

Year-over-year

Windsor’s 2025 total of 19,326 reported incidents was 27.4% higher than 2024’s 15,164. In absolute terms, 2024’s 15,164 records were the base for that increase. The city archive contains three years of incident-level open-data records, and 2025 ranks first, followed by 2024 and 2026 (11,719). The top categories in 2025 were Other (7,640), Theft (5,959), Fraud (1,917), Mischief (1,551), Assault (1,097), and Break and enter (887). These are reported incident counts, not per-capita rates; the year-over-year change reflects reporting and should not be read as a per-capita risk measure.
