How this was measured
Everything here is computed from open data: City of Toronto address points, building permits and neighbourhood boundaries; Toronto Police Service major crime indicators; TTC schedules; and TDSB and TCDSB school locations.
School figures are proximity only. No school rating or ranking is used anywhere on this site — a distance to a school is a verifiable fact about a location, while a school rating largely reflects the income and demographics of its catchment.
Neighbourhood character is derived from reported incident volume, severity-weighted using the Statistics Canada Crime Severity Index method, so that offences of very different seriousness are not counted as equivalent.
