The data captures a six-week window in mid-2026, reflecting routine reporting patterns rather than seasonal spikes. Residents and analysts can use these figures to track local policing activity and community safety trends over time, keeping in mind that reporting volumes shift with seasonal activity and administrative updates.
The reported figures span a 49-day window from early June through late July 2026. While this timeframe provides a clear snapshot of recent activity, users should note that neighbourhood boundary definitions may vary year to year. York Region’s open-data portal occasionally adjusts municipal classifications, which can affect how historical counts compare to current reporting cycles. Analysts reviewing multi-year trends should verify boundary consistency before drawing longitudinal conclusions.
Theft leads Newmarket’s incident profile with 176 reports, followed closely by assault at 155 incidents. Together, these two categories account for the majority of recorded activity in the area. Other categories include 77 reports classified as other, 45 incidents of mischief, 39 fraud cases, and 14 break-and-enter offences. The concentration of theft and assault reflects typical urban reporting patterns, where property-related offences and interpersonal conflicts drive the bulk of police dispatches. Break and enter remains the least frequent category within this reporting window.
Newmarket’s incident mix leans heavier on theft and assault than the broader York Region profile, where property crimes typically dominate. The 526 total sits well below Vaughan’s 1,564 and Markham’s 1,079, reflecting Newmarket’s smaller commercial footprint and residential layout. Fraud and break-and-enter remain low-frequency categories, suggesting that organized property offences are less prevalent here than in adjacent hubs. The 10.3 per cent city share indicates that Newmarket’s reporting volume tracks proportionally with its regional size rather than exhibiting outlier activity.

No, the dataset covers a 49-day window from June 5 to July 23, 2026. Because the reporting period is shorter than a calendar year, annual trend comparisons require caution. Users should treat these figures as a mid-2026 snapshot rather than a complete yearly summary.
