Which area is safer?
These figures cannot settle that question on their own. Police reports cover selected incident types and depend on reporting behaviour, land use and how the area is drawn. Explore the offence mix and locations that matter to you, rather than treating a lower total as a personal safety score.
The approximate Toronto district rectangles can overlap. They are not official borough totals, and a shared incident can appear on both sides.
