Understanding this data
“Reported” means a report was made to Toronto Police — it does not mean anyone was charged, convicted, or found responsible.
Figures are based on the date each incident was reported to police, not the date it occurred. Toronto Police may revise figures as investigations continue; any material revision to a published month appears here as a dated correction rather than a silent edit.
Sexual violation offences are not included in these statistics: Toronto Police does not publish row-level historical data for this category, so no reliable monthly count or trend can be produced from it.
Every figure is drawn from Toronto Police Service’s public open data and covers Toronto.
