Key stats

What these numbers mean

Guelph’s 60-day snapshot is dominated by theft, which accounts for over half of all incidents. Fraud and assault follow, but no other category exceeds 12%. The absence of year-over-year data means trends cannot be assessed, but the concentration of theft is notable. With only one neighbourhood listed, spatial patterns are not visible, making this a city-wide overview rather than a localized analysis.
