Crime Stats
We recognize the value of sharing information that supports community safety and well-being in Ottawa.
Crime and community safety statistics give residents and visitors information that helps improve personal safety awareness and supports neighbourhood problem-solving efforts.
We have continuously expanded the availability of crime and community safety data through several channels.
Ottawa Neighbourhood Study
In addition to the information found on our website, we regularly provide data to the Ottawa Neighbourhood Study. The ONS enables neighbourhood-level analysis of our community's social determinants of health. Users have access to a wealth of data in a format that is accessible and can be easily interpreted.
Crime data complements demographic, socio-economic, health and wellness, civic engagement, community resources, parks and recreation, and data sets already available. Combining these data sets provides the community with a rich profile of data for each neighbourhood that can be used to improve planning, support program development, and inform decision-making.
Open Ottawa
Disaggregated data on crime, bike theft, and shootings are also available through Open Ottawa.
Let's use data to make Ottawa a better place to live, work, and play! Let us know what data sets you want to see. Email us at info@ottawapolice.ca.
Crime Trends Reports
The 2021-2022 Crime Trends Report for the City of Ottawa and City Wards (24) provides a snapshot of police activity from January 1 to December 31, 2022. This report examines all founded Criminal Code of Canada offences that were reported to the Ottawa Police over the last five years.
The crime statistics published in these reports are accurate on the day they were produced. Due to ongoing police investigations and internal data quality control efforts, this information is subject to change, including addition, deletion and reclassification of any and all data. Rates and percentages have been rounded.
