About this data
This page summarizes reported property offences in Wood Buffalo, Alberta for the Latest day (2026-10-06), when the RCMP K-Division open feed recorded 5 incidents. The open feed for this census subdivision covers property offences only — break and enter, theft, auto theft, theft from vehicle and mischief — and does not publish assault, robbery, homicide or other person crimes, so absence from the map is not evidence they did not occur.
Use this page to see the latest occurrence-day mix for the municipality, split from the regional RCMP layer for local review. The interactive map shows a broader rolling 60 days with 236 incidents, while the 5-incident headline above is limited to October 6, 2026 and may rise if police add late reports.
Recent trend
Year-over-year change is not available for the Latest day (2026-10-06) headline. The archive year series lists only 2026, with 892 dated incidents in the year series and 922 incidents in the full on-disk archive for 2026, so there is no complete prior-year pair to compare. The 5-incident total is a single occurrence day, October 6, 2026, not an annual total and not a 60-day window figure. A meaningful annual comparison for Wood Buffalo will require a second complete calendar year in the RCMP K-Division feed.
Category breakdown
For the Latest day (2026-10-06), the 5 incidents in Wood Buffalo split across three property categories. Mischief led with 2 incidents, or 40% of the day's total, tied with Theft at 2 incidents, also 40%. Theft from vehicle accounted for the remaining 1 incident on October 6, 2026, or 20%. The feed for Wood Buffalo publishes property offences only, so these three categories represent the published open-data mix for that date in the RCMP K-Division layer. Because the daily base is only 5 records, a single file shifts percentages sharply, so the 40% shares describe this one day and not a longer trend.
What this means
Wood Buffalo's Latest day (2026-10-06) is a very small 5-incident snapshot: 2 Mischief files and 2 Theft files at 40% each, plus 1 Theft from vehicle at 20%, with no other property categories recorded that day. The even split means no single category dominated. Readers should weigh this one-day mix against the broader 60-day map context of 236 incidents, since daily counts of this size move sharply with one or two files.
