How to read this card
- Each pin is one official 2026 police release with a public location. Pins are not a full count of crime, and an area with fewer pins is not necessarily safer. This is not a ranking of neighbourhoods.
- Locations are approximate, at block, street, neighbourhood or town level, never a home address. Sexual offence, child protection and human trafficking pins are neighbourhood or town level only, with no details that could identify anyone harmed.
- Charges are police allegations and have not been proven in court.
- Windsor Watchers is an independent Windsor News public service. It is not a police service. We cooperate fully with police. In an emergency, call 911.
