As I mentioned last week, there is good news regarding the crime statistics in Langley City. Over the last five years, the overall crime rate has decreased by 40% and the Crime Severity Index has decreased by 50%.
At the same time, people are still calling the police. The number of police “files” or service calls is steady at around 12,000 annually in Langley City, with a peak of 12,676 in 2022 and a low of 11,703 in 2020, about a 7% difference. In 2024, the number of “files” was 11,997, which is about a 5% difference from the peak.
For all suspicious activity that is not an emergency, you can call the non-emergency police line at 604-532-3200 or use the online crime reporting tool.
