Theft was the most common category with 146 records, followed by mischief with 135, break and enter with 62, auto theft with 29, and theft from vehicle with 21.

Yellowknife recorded 393 reported incidents in 2026, according to RCMP K-Division open-data records. This page covers that single year's city-wide data, showing how the total breaks down by category. Because Yellowknife's current archive contains only 2026 records, this page does not compare 2026 with earlier years.
The 2026 category counts are led by theft at 146 incidents and mischief at 135. Break and enter follows with 62 incidents, auto theft with 29, and theft from vehicle with 21. All figures are incident counts from the open-data archive, not population-based rates. The page is intended as a factual summary of what appears in the dataset for Yellowknife in 2026.
The 2026 data for Yellowknife contains 393 reported incidents, all belonging to a single archive year. The largest category is theft, at 146 incidents, followed by mischief at 135. Break and enter accounts for 62 incidents, auto theft for 29, and theft from vehicle for 21. These top-five counts give the year a property-crime focus, with no prior-year records in the dataset to place them against. Because the archive's earliest and latest year are both 2026, the city total equals the annual total. This page therefore presents the year as the dataset itself does: a single snapshot of reported incidents.
Theft and mischief account for the two largest shares of Yellowknife's 2026 records, at 146 and 135 incidents respectively. Break and enter follows at 62, with auto theft at 29 and theft from vehicle at 21. Because 2026 is the only year in the archive, the annual total and city-wide total are the same (393). There is no prior year to compare, so these counts should be read as a single-year snapshot rather than evidence of a trend.
Yellowknife's 2026 open-data archive contains 393 reported incidents. This is the full-archive calendar-year total for that year, and it also equals the city-wide total because 2026 is the only year in the current dataset. The count reflects all 393 records available from RCMP K-Division for the city.
The dataset for Yellowknife currently contains one year of records — 2026 — so there is no earlier annual count to compare against. As a result, the 393 incidents in 2026 cannot be described as an increase or decrease. They are the only annual total on file, and any trend statement would require additional years of data.
Theft was the most frequently recorded category, with 146 incidents. Mischief followed with 135 incidents, break and enter with 62, auto theft with 29, and theft from vehicle with 21. These five categories are the top-ranked groups in the 2026 dataset, and theft's 146 count is the highest single-category figure in the year.
