About this data
This page covers Peterborough, Ontario for the Latest day (2026-10-25), reflecting 1 incident recorded for October 25, 2026 in the official police open-data portal. The headline total describes that single occurrence day only, not a year-to-date total and not a rolling average. Police services may still add reports for the day, so the count can rise as records are processed. The page updates as newer occurrence days are published.
The interactive map uses a separate 60-day rolling window, which holds 955 incidents for Peterborough, offering broader context around the single-day figure. Viewing the daily count alongside that two-month window helps readers see whether October 25 was quiet relative to recent activity and to explore where incidents were mapped without confusing the two periods.
Recent trend
Year-over-year change is not available for the Latest day (2026-10-25), because a single-day count cannot be compared to a full calendar year. The on-disk archive provides broader calendar context, with 4,600 records in 2025 and 5,063 records in 2026 for a full-archive total of 9,663 incidents across 2025 to 2026. Those archive figures use complete calendar-year tallies, while the headline figure of 1 incident describes October 25, 2026 only. Readers should keep the daily and annual views separate when considering longer-term direction in Peterborough.
Category breakdown
For October 25, 2026, the reported mix consists entirely of Other, with 1 incident accounting for 100% of the day's total. No other categories were recorded for that occurrence day, so there is no second- or third-ranked category to compare. For context on what Other contains in this source, the full-archive breakdown attributes 1,222 records to Other, led by Drugs with 885 records, or 72.4% of Other and 9.2% of the archive total. Weapons offences and Impaired & dangerous driving follow in that longer-term split. The archive split does not describe October 25 alone, but it explains the range of incident types grouped under Other.
What this means
October 25, 2026 stands out for how quiet the Peterborough open-data feed is, with just 1 incident listed as Other, compared with 955 incidents in the 60-day map window. That contrast suggests a light reporting day rather than a typical volume. Longer term, the full-archive Other split is led by Drugs at 885 records, or 72.4% of Other, which shapes how the single-day Other label should be read. With only one neighbourhood area listed for the day, there is little geographic variation to interpret for October 25.
FAQ
How many incidents were reported in Peterborough on the latest day?
Peterborough's headline total is 1 incident for the latest reporting day, 2026-10-25, which covers 2026-10-25 to 2026-10-25. The day's mix was 1 record in Other, representing 100% of that day's count. This 1-incident figure is the city's latest exact occurrence day within 7 days of ingest, not a 60-day total, and police may still add reports so the count can rise.
What was the most common incident category on the latest day?
For 2026-10-25, Other was the only listed category with 1 incident, or 100% of the day's total. For broader context, the full-archive Other breakdown totals 1,222 incidents and is led by Drugs with 885 records, 72.4% of Other, followed by Weapons offences with 183 records, 15% of Other, and Impaired & dangerous driving with 154 records, 12.6% of Other.
Are incident counts trending up or down in Peterborough?
Year-over-year change is not available for this selected period. The multi-year archive series lists 4,600 dated incidents in 2025 and 4,726 dated incidents in 2026 through 2026-10-25. Because 2026 is incomplete through October and the headline covers only 2026-10-25 with 1 incident, the two calendar counts should not be read as a completed annual change.
Which Peterborough neighbourhood had the most incidents on the latest day?
Neighbourhood detail for 2026-10-25 is limited to 1 listed area. CITY recorded 1 incident, accounting for the full 1-incident day total. With only one neighbourhood geography published for this source, no comparison between multiple Peterborough neighbourhoods is possible for the latest day, unlike cities with broader neighbourhood breakdowns.
Where does Peterborough's incident data come from?
The figures come from the official police and municipal open-data portal for Ontario, as compiled for Peterborough. The latest-day file records 1 incident on 2026-10-25, while the full on-disk archive holds 9,663 incidents covering 2025 to 2026. Municipality pages are split from the regional open layer where applicable, so counts reflect Peterborough's boundary only.
How current is the Peterborough data shown here?
The open data is current through 2026-10-25, the Latest day (2026-10-25) based on the city's latest exact occurrence day within 7 days of ingest. That day shows 1 incident. Separately, the interactive map's rolling 60-day window holds 955 incidents, so the 1-incident headline and the 955-incident map total describe different periods and should not be substituted.
