Recent trend

Key stats

What these numbers mean

Burnaby’s 60-day snapshot is dominated by property crime, with theft from vehicles alone accounting for half of all incidents. Break-and-enter and auto theft combine for another 50%, leaving almost no violent crime in this window. The absence of year-over-year data means these figures serve as a baseline rather than a trend indicator. The concentration of incidents in just three categories may reflect targeted policing priorities or reporting patterns.
