Is Bouctouche safe?

Crime in Bouctouche is close to the Canadian average.

By police-reported crime, Bouctouche's crime rate is close to the Canadian average. In 2025, police reported 5,153 Criminal Code incidents per 100,000 people, −7.7% compared with Canada (5,585) and −16.9% compared with New Brunswick (6,200).

With fewer than 1,000 incidents a year, this police service is not ranked: rates of small places can swing a lot from one year to the next.

Since 2020
−33.3% reported incidents

A city-wide rate is not a safety rating. It counts crimes reported to police, mostly theft and mischief, divided by residents, and risk depends far more on the neighbourhood and the situation.
