About this data
This page summarizes reported crime incidents in Brantford, Ontario for September 2026, when 425 incidents were recorded as the last complete calendar month with published counts. The figures come from the official police and municipal open-data portal for Ontario, showing what was reported to police and published in the monthly feed. Focusing on a single calendar month keeps the headline comparable from month to month, rather than mixing September with year-to-date or map-window totals.
The broader category mix covers 2026 year-to-date through September, based on 2,260 dated incidents, while the interactive map shows a separate 739 incidents over the most recent 60 days. Keeping the September total distinct from those windows helps readers see short-term reporting alongside longer accumulation, and compare how Theft, Assault and Fraud contribute to the year-to-date picture for Brantford.
Recent trend
Year-over-year change is not available for September 2026 because the year series contains only 2026, with 2,260 dated incidents, so there is no complete prior year to compare. The full on-disk archive also centres on 2026, with 2,348 incidents and a single-year series, which means no calendar-year pair exists for a percentage change. As additional months are published, a September-to-September comparison will become possible. Until then, the 425-incident September total should be read as a monthly snapshot, not as evidence of an annual rise or decline.
Category breakdown
The 2026 year-to-date mix through September, covering 2,260 dated incidents, is led by Theft with 1,168 reports, or 51.7% of the mix. Assault follows with 371 reports, or 16.4%, and Fraud is third with 334 reports, or 14.8%. Those three shapes define the published mix, with Auto theft next at 211 reports, or 9.3%, followed by Break and enter at 141 reports, or 6.2%, and Robbery at 35 reports, or 1.5%. The September headline of 425 incidents is a separate monthly count and should not be confused with these year-to-date category totals, which show how reports accumulated through September.
What this means
Brantford's September 2026 snapshot of 425 incidents sits against a 2026 year-to-date pattern led by Theft at 1,168 reports, or 51.7%, followed by Assault at 371 reports and Fraud at 334 reports. Auto theft at 211 reports and Break and enter at 141 reports add a secondary property-crime layer, while Robbery remains limited at 35 reports. With 2,260 dated incidents through September, the mix shows theft-related reports accounting for the largest share of the published volume this year.

With no complete prior year to compare, we cannot describe an annual increase or decrease from these figures alone.
Which Brantford neighbourhoods have the most incidents?
Neighbourhood breakdowns are not available for this Brantford source, so we cannot rank neighbourhoods for September 2026. The published file provides a city-level total of 425 incidents for September and a 2026 year-to-date category mix, including 1,168 theft incidents, without a published neighbourhood split to compare areas.
Where does the Brantford crime data come from?
These figures come from the official police / municipal open-data portal for Ontario covering Brantford, compiled through September 2026. The September headline covers 425 incidents, while the year-to-date file holds 2,260 dated incidents for category analysis. Different portals may group incident types differently, so definitions can vary between releases.
How current is this Brantford data?
The headline reflects September 2026, the last complete calendar month, with 425 incidents, while the latest occurrence date in the feed is October 10, 2026. The interactive map uses a separate rolling 60-day window with 739 incidents. Police may still add late reports, so September and year-to-date totals can be revised in later releases.
