About this data

This page summarises Winnipeg’s open‑data crime incidents for 2026 (YTD, through Apr), using the Winnipeg Police Service Crime Maps public‑data feed. The dataset aggregates reported offences across the city, providing a snapshot of incident counts up to the last complete month, which helps residents and planners see recent crime activity.

The headline total of 6,482 incidents reflects the open‑data totals for the selected period, distinct from the 60‑day map window that currently shows 4,912 incidents. The source data are published on the Winnipeg Police Service’s ArcGIS Hub.

Recent trend

The archive shows a modest decline in total incidents between complete calendar years: 2024 recorded 21,803 incidents, while 2025 fell to 21,497, a year‑over‑year change of ‑1.4 %. The 2026 YTD figure of 6,482 incidents is not comparable to a full‑year total, so a direct YoY comparison for 2026 is unavailable. The multi‑year series highlights a stable overall pattern with a slight dip from 2024 to 2025.

Category breakdown

For 2026 (YTD, through Apr), the top three categories are Other with 1,503 incidents (23.2 % of total), Auto theft with 1,380 incidents (21.3 %), and Assault with 1,001 incidents (15.4 %). Because Other leads, its largest subcategory is “Other crime,” accounting for 4,818 incidents, which represents 46.2 % of the Other category and 9.7 % of all incidents. These figures illustrate the composition of reported offences during the period.

Key stats

  • Total incidents (2026 YTD, through Apr): 6,482.
  • Violent offences (assault, sexual assault, robbery, homicide, shooting): 1,514.
  • Other category leads with 1,503 incidents (23.2 % of total).
  • Auto theft accounts for 1,380 incidents (21.3 % of total).
  • Within Other, “Other crime” makes up 4,818 incidents (46.2 % of Other).

What these numbers mean

Winnipeg’s 2026 YTD data show that the “Other” category dominates the incident mix, driven largely by “Other crime” which alone contributes nearly half of the Other count. Auto theft is the second most common offence, closely trailing Other, while assaults represent a smaller yet notable share. Violent offences total 1,514 incidents, highlighting that person‑targeted crimes comprise a modest proportion of the overall count. The modest year‑over‑year dip observed in the archive suggests relative stability in total incidents across recent full years.

About this dataset

  • Reporting basis: Counts reflect incidents reported to police only. Under-reporting — especially for sexual assault, fraud, and minor theft — means actual incidence is higher than these figures show.
  • Not a per-capita rate: These are absolute incident counts. Comparing one place’s counts to another without normalising for population can mislead — see the Crime Severity Index for severity-weighted, population-adjusted rankings.
  • Privacy: Coordinates on the map are rounded to roughly 111 m so individual addresses cannot be inferred.
  • What "Other" includes: The parent Other category is split on the map into Traffic & MVC, Drugs, Weapons offences, Bylaw & Provincial, Calls for service, and Other crime. In this dataset the largest Other slice is Other crime (46.2% of Other, 4,818 records). These are open-data rows, not a separate "mystery crime" class.
  • Data window: 2026 (YTD, through Apr).
