Vaughan recorded 8,114 reported incidents in 2026, below 2025's 15,114; however, 2026 is a partial-year figure and should not be compared as a full annual change. Theft led with 2,274 incidents, followed by Other (1,940), Assault (1,073), Fraud (1,055), Mischief (619) and Auto theft (407). Within Other, Threats (429) and Harassment (281) were person-related offences. York Regional Police data spans 2021 to 2026.
Vaughan recorded 8,114 reported incidents in 2026 so far, according to York Regional Police open-data records for the Ontario city. That figure is not a completed annual total: the 2026 file is still being collected, so the count represents the current year-to-date window rather than a full 12 months.
For comparison, all of 2025 produced 15,114 records. The six-year archive for Vaughan shows 11,829 in 2021, 14,505 in 2022, 16,861 in 2023, 15,769 in 2024 and 15,114 in 2025, with 82,192 records across the full dataset. Theft currently leads 2026 with 2,274 records, followed by the Other grouping at 1,940.
This year is still in progress, so 2026's raw count of 8,114 is not a completed annual total. The most recent full calendar year in the archive is 2025, with 15,114 records; direct comparison of the two would treat a partial window as a full-year shift, so no year-over-year percentage is presented here. Among categories, Theft has the highest 2026 total at 2,274, followed by Other at 1,940, Assault at 1,073 and Fraud at 1,055. The Other group is not residual: it includes Threats (429), Harassment (281), Drugs (341) and Traffic & MVC (272).
2026's reported total of 8,114 is the lowest count in Vaughan's six-year archive, with Theft (2,274) at the top. The Other grouping (1,940) is not a residual category: Threats (429), Harassment (281) and Drugs (341) are leading subcategories. Assault (1,073) and Fraud (1,055) are close, while Mischief (619) and Auto theft (407) round out the top six. The year's mix puts theft first and leaves person-offence counts embedded in Other, not only in Assault.
Vaughan has 8,114 reported incidents in the 2026 open-data file as of the current window. That total is drawn from the full on-disk city archive, which includes 82,192 records across all available years. Because 2026 is a partial reporting year, the 8,114 figure is not a complete annual count.
No percentage change is calculated because 2026 is still in progress. The raw counts show 8,114 records so far in 2026 versus 15,114 for all of 2025. Comparing those directly would mix a partial window with a full year, so the lower figure does not by itself demonstrate a decline.
Theft is the leading category in Vaughan's 2026 data with 2,274 incidents, followed by Other at 1,940, Assault at 1,073 and Fraud at 1,055. The Other grouping includes Threats (429), Drugs (341), Harassment (281) and Traffic & MVC (272). These are category counts for this year only.
