Pickering recorded 810 reported incidents in 2026, above the 688 total for 2025. Theft from vehicle led with 197 incidents, followed closely by auto theft at 196 and assault at 194. Break and enter added 114, while Other (largely traffic-related) accounted for 73. These figures come from Durham Regional Police Service open data. Because the 2026 figure reflects a partial-year open-data window, compare it with earlier years with caution.
Pickering's 2026 open-data file contains 810 reported incidents, according to Durham Regional Police Service. The count is the archive total for the 2026 calendar bucket to date; because the year is still in progress, it is not a complete calendar-year total. For context, the 2025 raw count was 688 records.
The current-year file's top categories are theft from vehicle (197), auto theft (196), assault (194), break and enter (114), Other (73), and robbery (30). The full Pickering archive across all years contains 1,511 records, and the 2026 count represents 53.6% of that total. These totals reflect reported incidents, not per-capita risk.
The 2026 raw total of 810 stands above the 2025 raw count of 688, but the current year is still being collected, so the difference is not a year-over-year percentage change. The current-year breakdown is led by theft from vehicle (197), auto theft (196), and assault (194), with break and enter (114), Other (73), and robbery (30) next. The Other records are all Traffic & MVC in the calendar-year breakdown. Earlier archive years are sparse — most show five or fewer records before 2025 — so this partial-year total should not be read as a mature annual trend.
Pickering's 2026 file is marked by a tight lead group: theft from vehicle (197), auto theft (196), and assault (194). Vehicle-related property crime is the strongest theme, with break and enter (114) adding another property-heavy category. The 810 records rank first among the nine years in the city archive, but earlier archive years are sparse — counts of five or fewer before 2025 — so the rank reflects raw availability as much as local activity. The entire Other category (73 records) is Traffic & MVC in this year's breakdown.
Pickering's 2026 dataset contains 810 reported incidents as of the current archive. This is the raw count for the year to date, not a complete calendar-year total. The 2025 raw count was 688, so the 2026 file is larger, but a year-over-year percentage cannot be calculated because 2026 is still in progress.
The 2026 raw count of 810 is higher than the 2025 count of 688. Because 2026 is still in progress, that difference is not a year-over-year percentage change. Earlier archive years are sparse — most have five or fewer records before 2025 — so the year-to-year series is not a consistent trend line.
Theft from vehicle leads with 197 incidents, followed by auto theft at 196 and assault at 194. Break and enter appears 114 times, and robbery has 30. The Other category has 73 records, all classified as Traffic & MVC in the calendar-year breakdown for 2026.
