I am born and raised in Montreal and lived there til 35 before moving to Texas.Sure there are isolated criminal incidents and gang activity in certain neighborhoods but overall Montreal is a pretty safe city.There aren't any 'no-go' zones that are highly dangerous...nothing like some cities I have been to in the USA like Baltimore or New Orleans where there are areas you certainly don't want to walk through if you don't live there!!

[@patatebanine4278]

Exactly. The way Mtl works is different than american's cities. Like, ppl have to know it Doesnt mean that these neighborhood is full of black people thats describes as a dangerous hood. Im living in Montreal-North and its pretty nice spot. We can walk there in the middle of night and 90% nothing will happens to us. Frl, there is how Mtl works: each hood in Montreal is dominated by a ethnicy. Go in Parc-Ex and you will feel like you go to a trip to India and Sri-Lanka; Stl is dominated by Italian; Plateau is full of french people from France. The same for mtl-north.

If you go walk in any direction from my job for 3 mins, there are again over a dozen different coned out zones...most of them no one is working on. They closed the street behind ours on one side, put full of cones, stopping traffic going into boulevard. That was 2 weeks ago. They haven't started any work, just blocking traffic and access so people started moving the cones back, then back again, moved the portable barrier and now you can sort of pass thru both ways.

Montreal got worse in the last few years , with more gangs related shootings . But still very low compared to U.S. cities .

[@vlada]

Actually, it's way safer than it was in 90 and 00's when the biker wars and mafia wars were going on. It was over 100 murders in 80 and 90's and by 2005 it was under 50 and it hasn't changed. The last 5 yrs it's in the 45 range. Last year in August, the media really played up how violent "it is now" when two different mobsters were assassinated in a cafe and parking lot. It was the 21-22nd murders of the year. So the media looooove to scare people like they always do: weather, vaccines, violence. The sky is always falling because that sells. I'm not saying you wouldn't get mugged or robbed or get your car stolen but the idea that mafia/gang warfare is more dangerous than before is simply not true. Petty street gangs exist and the idea that Mtl North is a hood they live in is ridiculous. There are beautiful parks, sports complexes, fields, community centers and beautiful triplexes. HoMa is more run down as the old industries have disappeared and it's an older working class neighborhood that's being gentrified so I get it looks worse. But Mtl North? Gtfo...that's just people larping, acting out what they see others do.

[@JohnManzo]

Like all of Canada, Montreal's murder rate peaked around 1980. It was never, ever, ever, ever high, even by Canadian standards.

[@kiddo7711]

@@JohnManzo Montreal from the 70s - early 90s really used to be very dangerous. Back in 1975, Montreal's homicide record was 112, the population was around 1,080,545 in 1976, giving the city a homicide rate of around 10.4 per 100,000. To put it into perspective, New York in 1997 had 770 homicides with a population of 7,383,000 people giving NYC a homicide rate of 10.4 per 100,000 people. In 1989, Montreal hit a second peak with 96 murders (around 9.5 per 100,000). Even in 2001 (years after the peak in homicides), Montreal had 66 murders, with a murder rate of around 6.3 per 100,000 people, compared to NYC's 8.1 in the same year. Montreal was (& still kinda is) a VERY active city, with multiple levels crime groups ranging from, the Mafia like the Rizzuto crime family, Irish mobs like the West End gang, & not to mention Blood sets like "Les Bo-Gars" (who are located in Montreal-Nord, which in modern-day is considered the most dangerous hood in the city) & Crip sets like the "Crack Down Posse". Montreal kinda went through the same thing New York went through, where both cities were one of the worst in their own respective country from the 70s-90s, but in the modern-day, both cities are considered one of the safest major cities in North America (& possibly the world too).

[@kiddo7711]

A hood/ghetto is a low income area with lots of crime, and there's lots of those in Montreal (& Canada in general), the big difference is that the hoods in Canada aren’t as big & as widespread like America, Canada does a lil bit of a better job of not letting their major cities fall apart & turn into total NO-GO ZONES & WARZONES like Baltimore, Detroit, St. Louis, Jackson, MS Memphis, or New Orleans, all those are some EXTREME cities with some of the highest murder rates in the world. Canadian cities are no different from American cities we still got areas where you gotta watch your surroundings. A lot of people think that because Canada is safer in the US that means there's no bad areas there, when there's in fact a lot of violence in some Canadian neighborhoods, it just doesn't get the same coverage/reputation, because the US is the next door neighbor and because of the Canadians are "nice" stereotype.

[@vector8310]

Not all that hardcore as far as hoods go.

[@jassack6333]

oh please ! the peeps you see walking around are bohemians "slumming it" for the "experience" . One call to rich mommy or daddy , limousine picks them up and they can go live with parents in the wealthiest hoods in metro montreal . reminiscent of song , lyrics and video by band Pulp - Common People - youtube

Montreal is known for it's street art.....people see some graffitti and are like oh that's a hood. lol.....or hey black people live here. Gotta be the hood.

The guy walks through the alleys to show ugly Montreal, if you do that in any city you will have the same result, a little intellectual honesty please.

Hoods in Canada, still lightyears better than in the US.

[@kiddo7711]

Wait until you find out that the worst ghettos in Canada are actually comparable to some American ghettos (Obviously not to the same extent as like a city like St. Louis, Jackson, MS or New Orleans but that should obviously go without saying). Just because Canada is safer in the US, doesn't mean there's no bad areas there, when there's in fact a lot of violence in certain neighborhoods as well, it just doesn't get the same reputation/coverage, because the US is the next door neighbor.

Gangbanging have started in the hood of MONTREAL-NORTH before New York. They started in California, but in Montreal we had bloods and crips gang around early 80's. In Montreal-North we had the first gang of Bloods in Montreal city called: Bo Gars, and crips were in St-Michel and they were called CDP, Crack Down Posse, New York gang banging activity started in the late 90's

[@Zeke1379]

Montreal is known more for Mafia types and biker gangs

[@bigfatburn6229]

I am a woman. White. Montreal is safe everywhere. I walk in that « hood » all the time. Yes there are gangs but you don’t have more risk of being a victim of crime. Poverty does not mean more crimes here. It is nowhere near what the USA has. I just get annoyed when I hear « hood ». St-Henri is a place people want to live in actually (end of video). And expensive one to rent a place.

[@YoungSlickBiker]

All you said is facts big time. When you think of it, when you just mind your own business, you have no trouble. It used to be like that in Haiti too until the president got killed and i would say around 2020. Most Haitians from here and USA can't go to Haiti right now cause they are aiming at all Diasporas and kidnappings at the airport and killings all kinds of stuff. Last time i went in Haiti was in 2019 and i seen Violent scenes and violence to an extent that Montreal has never seen on Montreal streets. I'm talking whole neighborhoods 300 400 people running after 2 little kids for stealing food and beating them with sticks rocks punches everything. Senseless violence for no reason.... But it was still cool as long as you would never steal and never do anything wrong. But now it's a different story i can't go back there@@bigfatburn6229

At 5:44, I live 50 feet from the corner on the left for 3 years, 15 minute walk to downtown. The are is completely under regentrification, along with St-Henri, Point St Charles and Verdun due to the same downtown proximity and the cleaning up of the Lachine Canal. This video is a 'Fail' if you're trying to show the 'worst hoods'. Good luck trying to buy up cheap real estate in ANY of these areas. I guess you couldn't find any hoods with hookers and crack heads....

About 70,000 in Montreal 😊

​@@joaquintamayo3126 They speak Creole not really French. Although its vocabulary largely derives from 18th-century French, its grammar is that of a West African Volta-Congo language branch, particularly the Fongbe and Igbo languages. It also has influences from Spanish, English, Portuguese, Taino, and other West African languages.

I believe a hoof also describes somewhere you feel unsafe. These here do not fit that description, to me.

Québec is actually one of the safest regions in North America, they simply have different standards in terms of safety.

[@jaylenflanagan1295]

Shit is safe

[@kiddo7711]

​@@ImEazyE Montreal from the 70s - early 90s really used to be like that, a lot of people really don't know. Back in 1975, Montreal's homicide record was 112, a homicide rate of around 10.4 per 100,000. To put it into perspective, New York in 1997 had 770 homicides with a population of 7,383,000 people giving NYC a homicide rate of 10.4 per 100,000 people. In 1989, Montreal hit a second peak with 96 murders (around 9.5 per 100,000). Even in 2001 (years after the peak in homicides), Montreal had 66 murders, with a murder rate of around 6.3 per 100,000 people, compared to NYC's 8.1 in the same year Montreal kinda went through the same thing New York went through, where both cities were one of the worst in their own respective country from the 70s-90s, but in the modern-day, both cities are considered one of the safest major cities in North America (& possibly the world too).
