Auto theft in Wood Buffalo

This page covers auto theft in Wood Buffalo, Alberta, using open-data incident counts from the city's published archive. For 2026 year-to-date through July, the recorded auto theft count is 96 incidents. That figure is drawn from the latest calendar year in the full on-disk archive, not from the 60-day map window. It represents 14.4% of the 668 total incidents recorded city-wide across the categories tracked on this page.

Auto theft sits fourth among the five categories shown here, behind theft (234), mischief (142), and theft from vehicle (114), and ahead of break and enter (82). The page provides a year-to-date snapshot: the available year series for auto theft currently contains only 2026 data, so this page does not display a year-over-year comparison for the category.

How Auto theft compares

Within Wood Buffalo's five-category open-data set, auto theft's 96 incidents place it fourth. It trails Theft (234), Mischief (142), and Theft from vehicle (114), while ranking above Break and enter (82). Auto theft is 14.4% of the city's 668 total incidents in the 2026 year-to-date period. The category's position is therefore mid-to-lower in this comparison: more common than break-and-enter, less common than the three leading categories. No year-over-year change is shown because the year series contains only 2026 year-to-date observations.

Key stats

What these numbers mean

The number is best read as a mid-year snapshot rather than a full-year total.
