About this data

This interactive map displays reported police incidents across Vancouver, British Columbia, covering a 60-day window from May 24, 2026, to July 23, 2026. During this period, the dataset records a total of 5,493 incidents across 24 recognized neighbourhoods. The underlying records are compiled directly from public open data feeds published by the Vancouver Police Department.

Mapping local police record data provides a clear spatial breakdown of reported offences rather than relying solely on generalized citywide figures. This localized view allows residents, business operators, and researchers to track specific incident categories—ranging from theft to assault—across individual neighbourhoods. It serves as a factual resource for observing local activity trends and understanding documented police responses throughout Vancouver.

Recent trend

The dataset covers a single reporting timeframe in the series, recording 5,493 dated incidents for the year 2026 between May 24, 2026, and July 23, 2026. Because the year-over-year comparative metric is listed as null and no prior annual figures exist in this 60-day snapshot, long-term trend comparisons are unavailable. All 5,493 total incidents in the current dataset are assigned to 2026, with 0 undated records present. Evaluating changes over time will require additional annual data from future police releases for Vancouver.
