What these numbers mean

Theft stands out as Langley's most reported crime category for April–May 2026, comprising nearly 40% of all incidents. The dominance of theft—alongside theft from vehicle—highlights property crime as a significant share of local reports. With only two months of 2026 data, no year-over-year trend can be assessed, but the 130-incident total already exceeds counts for all other individual categories. The absence of neighbourhood breakdowns limits further geographic insight.

About this dataset

Reporting basis: Counts reflect incidents reported to police only. Under-reporting — especially for sexual assault, fraud, and minor theft — means actual incidence is higher than these figures show.
Not a per-capita rate: These are absolute incident counts. Comparing one place’s counts to another without normalising for population can mislead — see crime rates per 100,000 for population-adjusted figures.
Category includes a range: A single category groups incidents of varying severity (e.g. "assault" spans minor altercations through serious assault). The count alone does not indicate severity.
Data window: 2026-04-01 to 2026-05-31.
