Markham's Theft page draws on the municipal open-data incident archive and covers the Theft category for the 2026 year-to-date period through July. In this window, the archive records 1,754 thefts among 5,889 city-wide incidents across all categories. Theft represents 29.8% of Markham's total incident count for the period, making it the largest single category in the city's current feed.
Because the 2026 number is a year-to-date total through July, it is not a full-calendar-year figure and is not connected to the site's 60-day map tier. The archive also includes annual theft counts from 2021 through 2025, which provide longer-term context for the current partial-year count. At the neighbourhood level, the top listed counts for this category are Milliken West, Markham Hagerman, Markham Village, Markham East, and Markham 16th. Data are organized by category, neighbourhood, and year so readers can view the same series over time.
