How is the Etobicoke City Centre safety index calculated?
SafeRoute weights each incident reported to the Toronto Police Service by severity (violence weighs more than shoplifting), sums the last available period within 1 km of the neighbourhood centre, and normalizes against citywide crime rates onto a 0–100 scale — higher is safer. It describes reported crime only; it is not a guarantee of safety. The scale is calibrated within Toronto, so scores compare neighbourhoods to each other and cannot be read against another city's.
