Key stats

What these numbers mean

The 2019 data for Woodstock is notable for the overwhelming dominance of the 'Other' category, which accounts for 85% of all incidents. This skew is unusual compared to typical urban crime profiles, where property crimes like theft or break-and-enter often lead. The low counts in categories like assault (28) and auto theft (13) suggest a relatively quiet year for violent and vehicle-related crimes. However, without additional years of data, it's impossible to determine whether this distribution is typical for Woodstock.
