Recent trend

Key stats

What these numbers mean

Wingham's 60-day snapshot from mid-2018 shows a heavy concentration of incidents classified as 'Other,' which dominate the dataset at 86.7%. The low counts of violent crime (3 assaults) and property crime (6 thefts) suggest that most reported activity falls outside typical categories. With no year-over-year data, it's impossible to draw trend conclusions, but the sheer volume of 'Other' incidents stands out as unusual compared to larger urban centres where theft and assault usually lead.
