List of the top dangerous cities in Ontario, Canada

[@blakeps192]

All cities are dangerous when you don't allow people to defend what's theirs.

[@2painful2watch]

Can we say amen to that.

[@pacman3556]

you sound $tupid.

[@Meyers1793]

JFC. Was this comment written by an NRA algorithm? This makes no sense. Japan is incredibly safe and has very low levels of personal gun ownership. America has the highest rate of gun ownership in the world and a homicide rate substantially higher than other comparably wealthy industrialized countries.

[@TheSofres]

Ok, so your neighbour that has serious mental health issues would be allowed to defend what “theirs” is. 😂

[@jesseredden7123]

Sure dude, we should aim to more safe like the USA and be less like countries with stricter gun laws.

[@JoeVolpini]

I was very surprised Hamilton didn't make the list.

[@billyboy4797]

I'm surprised Timmons didn't make the list.

[@century21sean]

There’s always next year 😆

[@2painful2watch]

You forgot to mention Brampton, and Mississauga bro.

[@crsantin]

Brampton and Mississauga are not small cities. They are categorized as large cities. I think Mississauga is top 5 in Canada.

[@Meyers1793]

I believe Brampton and Mississauga get rolled into the Toronto census metropolitan area for statistical purposes.

[@kutter_ttl6786]

Congratulations, those two cities aren't in the top 5. They don't even break the top 10. when it comes to crime per capita, it tends to be smaller cities that come out worse.

[@Meyers1793]

I believe Brampton and Mississauga get lumped into the Toronto Census Metropolitan Area (CMA).

[@trevorgwelch7412]

Brampton - dangerous

[@century21sean]

It’s definitely in the news a lot

[@Gledge9]

As long as the no- justice system keeps putting criminals back on our streets and handing out nothing sentences for their crimes, it'll only get worse everywhere in Ontario.

[@century21sean]

Very true

[@blingbling574]

I've lived in TBay for over 50 years. You learn to avoid the bad places and times to expose yourself. You also get an eye for staying clear of trouble. Once in a while trouble comes to you.

[@century21sean]

This probably applies to any city really 🤔

[@CaptPike787]

Why didn’t he mention the native population issues in Branford and Thunder Bay? The top two.

[@carbonunit6573]

I’m in Carleton Place. I don’t even lock my doors. Never even seen an accident here.

[@dougiep2769]

I'm from Brantford... In the last 15 years its totally changed. It's now totally changed with lots of international bad guys. Worst drug problem I've seen in Canada hands down and I've been everywhere in Canada. Lots of gang activity and corrupt leaders

[@user-or6yn8pm3c]

lol. U upset they dont look like you or smell like you

[@user-or6yn8pm3c]

Toronto has one tenth the murders that Chicago has, give me a break.

[@acreguy3156]

Yep, and Trudeau wants to open the doors even wider for more of these thugs.

[@deandoxtator7137]

Hard to believe T.O not on the list. Every time I turn on the news its always Toronto somewhere. Born and raised in London we didn't get much crime it was a safe city at one time until the 90s, 2000s rolled in more ppl from Toronto started moving here.

[@century21sean]

The list is more than a year old so I imagine a more recent version might include Toronto now

[@pacman3556]

Toronto is a massive city of course there will be some crime but on a per capita bases it is safe. It was ranked 4th safest city in Canada to live in. London is not "unsafe" because of people from Toronto. It is unsafe because it is a $hit hole.

[@Meyers1793]

The news over reports crime in Toronto compared to other cities, creating the impression that it is more dangerous. In reality Toronto is actually very safe: in 2022 its crime severity index was 15 out of 16 census metropolitan areas in Ontario.

[@philpaine3068]

Toronto's population is huge compared to every other city in Ontario. It has a low crime rate ---- far, far lower than virtually any American city. But since it has a huge population, the absolute number of crimes appears larger. Crimes in Toronto are reported on national television, and heavily covered by media that are mostly centred in Toronto. So people get the impression that it has lots of crime, when in fact, there is much less crime per capita than in smaller cities. I live in what is considered the sketchiest part of downtown Toronto, and I feel perfectly safe. I walk the streets without fear at any time of the day. I know what real crime looks like: I've lived in numerous cities, including New York, Chicago and Detroit. The idea that Toronto is dangerous is laughable. Not only that, the idea that there was less crime in the past is pure bullshit. Crime hit its peak in the 1970s and early 1980s. It's been going down steadily ever since, with a slight uptick during the 2008-10 recession, but continuing to decline after that.

[@wendycrawford1792]

It was stated right at the begging of the post “ excluding Toronto” !!!

[@gb-yn2re]

what about Kitchener, down town Meth-hood. I lived in Thunder Bay and Kitchener it is worse...

[@century21sean]

Didn’t make the list

[@MikeyPaper]

​@@century21sean well then force it on the list!!!!!

[@patriciachura9320]

Unvetted immigration

[@user-mw3mb2uv8n]

As for Brantford…it’s been a bad city since the 30’s. As for gangs, there’s been gangs, clubs, and family business since that time too. As for international people, there is a lot of different immigrant people too. Brantford used to be very much a manufacturing city, with combines, rugs, soap, cardboard and envelopes, jewelry boxes, air conditioners, transport trailers, food and candy manufacturing. People in Brantford worked hard and some partied heartier. Colborne St. in the 70’s starting at Lorne Bridge, on your left the Prince Edward Hotel, up to your right where the YMCA is, is the Belmont Hotel, about where Beckett building across the street is the Kirby House Hotel, on Dalhousie Street it’s now a Laurier Building is the Squires Court, I am not sure what the present name is but before City Cab was the Graham Bell Hotel, then further down the street the pool hall I think it’s Langers, is the Alpine House Hotel. Most full during the weekends bc of the matinee these hotels offered. A lot of alcohol consumed a lot of scraps, a cop told me back then there was a stabbing every night. Murders, bank robberies, every crime in the book. So it is not just been in the last 15-20 yrs…Brantford is and always was a tough little town.

[@thedude3291]

blah blah blah ....

[@kieransmerdon]

Every city in Ontario sucks now

[@pacman3556]

better then living in the West with a bunch of wanna be MAGAtards.

[@michaelmacgregor1505]

Hamilton is def in the top 5

[@century21sean]

Another fan of the Hammer 😆

[@lisalee3490]

First time hear this, wow

[@larryjohnstone6260]

Owen sound is a bad one.

[@soundslikebroken3333]

I came to represent Oshawa and left shocked.

[@North-Shore-vanlife]

Chatham has alot of crime for a small city, like so many small cities and towns across Ontario affected by the opioid epidemic and continuing problems.

[@Matthew-yb6ux]

Yea it's sad tbh. I hope something gets done but that won't happen anytime soon unfortunately

[@century21sean]

That’s too bad. Opioid addiction is no joke.

[@North-Shore-vanlife]

@@century21sean it's i opioids and more, fentanyl is a bad problem here in Chatham. Chatham. That is the drug that makes everybody bend over with straight knees and look like zombies. They come and mess around outside of my shop. You stand there and yell at them. You can almost run them over and they have no idea you're there

[@saifonlawrence2044]

No break ins if homeowners were allowed to protect themselves

[@acreguy3156]

Agreed. If you physically defend yourself against an intruder in your house, you're as guilty as he is - if not more! Welcome to the Canadian legal system created by idiots.

[@newsmean]

[@skatemetal5062]

Cheers from Windsor Ontario lol Windsor where dreams come to die

[@century21sean]

🤣🤣

[@OfficerRhine8511]

At least it’s not Detroit 😂

[@alex_wolf]

Brampton should be #1

[@stacydornan9765]

Where's Brampton,I moved from there to London 5 years ago,saw way more crime in Brampton than London

[@century21sean]

Based on published crime stats it wasn’t on the list.

[@badtortoise3338]

IT USE TO BE WHITE, NO ITS 3RD WORLD. THERE IS UR ANSWER

[@ALuimes]

Brampton isn't so much crime but fake 2x4 fights in plaza parking lots among Indian international students, and fireworks into the wee hours on Diwali that pollute half the GTA.

[@Kinghauler2012]

Wow. 2 of top three I’ve lived in! Do i win a prize? 17yrs in T bay , 15 in the Soo. I guess i like my towns rough. Lol

[@century21sean]

Here ya go 🏆🥇😀

[@nicholaswhite2262]

No mention of the Shwa

[@user-gj6qb6bz9r]

Don’t walk downtown Belleville late at night either!

[@century21sean]

That bad eh?🤔

[@MikeyPaper]

Belleville is a crack town. Literal shit hole

[@sabrinaklippenstein-zr8co]

Come outside come outside you can catch me in windsor in my beautiful glengarry palace. We're safe we got security guards 24/7 there pretty deezed too.

[@unitedking4989]

Seems like you're having an identity crisis

[@danstaneckyj7854]

you forgot sudbury 12 homicides last year

[@billyboy4797]

For a city of 170,000 that's relatively low.

[@garystar1592]

I would love to know the criteria of inclusion for this so called study. Durham region has lots of crime. Most dangerous place in Ontario, Intersection of Jane and Finch in the hood

[@newsmean]

Belleville Ontario is not mentioned.

[@century21sean]

Until you just mentioned it 😉

[@nicholaswhite2262]

The Shwa???

[@century21sean]

Don’t worry, there’s always next year! 🤞

[@BraydenTheTendy]

Timmins ?

[@century21sean]

Is Timmins that bad?

[@BraydenTheTendy]

@@century21sean pretty bad, a lot of violence

[@TheKris519]

We’re number 5

[@jaaackhammer]

I live in Brantford and it's been pretty good to me , till lately. People calling the city on me cause I own my house and they don't, they just rent and hate people that own there house and own things, like a car. So they keep looking for things to call the city about and there in violation of the things they complain about. Time to move! This neighborhood is gonna go down the shltter after I move.

[@markojameow]

These are small or moderately sized cities, too. Bigger cities tend to be safer than smaller communities these days, so much for the “small town values” propaganda we’ve been spoon fed since forever.

[@century21sean]

Interesting perspective 🤔

[@acreguy3156]

That's because the big city scum are spreading to the smaller centers. We were in great shape in our small town until those *ssholes infested our streets.

[@allanswain2425]

No kidding , my hometown Kenora Ontario is even smaller than tbay , but millions of people go missing each months 😔

[@sharptoothtrex4486]

Even if Detroit joined Windsor in Ontario makes the perfect bad Ontario City of them all.

[@RonFraser-fl5yc]

None of these cities mentioned are unsafe in my opinion. I have never had any issues in any of them - can’t speak for Thunder Bay. Try driving through Baltimore or Cincinnati in the States. Now, that’s some scary shit.

[@century21sean]

It was based on published police stats.

[@emeraldboar5923]

Number 4! Number 4! London needs to do better. With a little luck and effort we can reach number 1.

[@century21sean]

😝 😝

[@user-xz9lx8qe6t]

Ottawa #1

[@commietube-]

Diversity

[@chriswannamaker7930]

Compare this to pretty much any other country and this is irrelevant

[@Meyers1793]

Huh? What does that even mean? 🤔

[@ericnic4872]

His stats are biased. If he added all the real dangerous crimes them it would be alberta area, toronto area, winnipeg area, manitoba area and saskatchewan area. All the crimes he meantioned are classsified as low end based crimes with less dangers involved for everyone around but if you factor in the most dangerous crimes like trafficking humans and contraband, violent homicides a paraphenalia o.ds and use, deaths of suspicious nature where foul play is the cause etc. Toronto would be on the list. He changed the perimeter of his filter to get these 5 cities

[@century21sean]

“His” stats are from Stats Canada like he said from “his” first sentence in the video.

[@ericnic4872]

@@century21sean and again, I stated he changed the perimeters of his information from the website. It is called “filters”. Now if he did that search on the website and added actual crimes that had violence attached to it, again Toronto, Winnipeg, Manitoba, Muskoka, Vancouver, Ottawa, Nova Scotia, British Columbia, Regina, Alberta etc would be on the list. You acting like I didn’t hear what he stated. I did hear and I also stated that he filtered his information to 3 non violent crimes that when committed are carrying less than 10% of violence versus the actual violent crimes committed that actually carried higher than 50% violence that followed. He said “most dangerous cities to live in Canada” then decided to pick them based on 3 non violent crimes when the content creator is giving falsified or misleading information, so of course I had to correct him because dangerous places requires the full scope including murders, homicides, traffficking of people and paraphernalia or anything where people got hurt, the 3 crimes he mentioned are ones where less than 5% of them reported death or violence. So in other words, he filtered the websites search criteria

[@ericnic4872]

Toronto is part of Ontario meaning Toronto and Ottawa would be in top 5 most dangerous cities in Ontario. I lived in Windsor, I lived in London, I lived in sarnia, Chatham, Blenheim, Branford, st. Thomas, Guelph, Dutton, Essex, and many places. Toronto, and Ottawa where the most dangerous places worse than Windsor and London combined, the weakest place was Dutton dunwhich and then Chatham/blenheim, sarnia and London were a bit more dangerous than Chatham Kent but not as bad as Windsor/Essex county, and Windsor is nowhere near as bad as Toronto or Ottawa or even Vancouver or anywhere where those Maritime provinces was at. Calgary and Vancouver and grand prairies being the worst following Saskatoon, red deer, Medicine Hat and Chestermere and muskoka. Like I said before, he used filters and picked the least most dangerous crimes committed so if he did that search again with actual violent crimes then Toronto and Ottawa would be there in the top 5 far worse than London, Windsor or sarnia combined.

[@ericnic4872]

At least be more truthful when saying the words “dangerous” when I hear that word I think of crimes involving conventional use of illegal firearms arms, substances and paraphernalia, assaults and assaults and battery, threats of nature using sharp objects or objects that can cause blunt force trauma, and any kind of crime involving trafficking of illicit substances or human trafficking. Not the 3 weak crimes he mentioned which has very minimal violence to them which is what makes the cities “dangerous” to live in.

You need to get your cities straight! Your picks here are wrong.

[@jeffwindrim975]

Why don’t you base your video on where you live and your experience with crime in your city rather than going by statistics I lived in Windsor Ontario for six years I had no issues I didn’t find it to be crime-ridden the way that you say it is I think your video is bogus.

[@century21sean]

Just because you personally haven’t experienced crime, doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist. It’s like saying “I’ve never been in a car accident, so therefore, car accidents don’t exist.” The stats don’t lie.

[@jeffwindrim975]

@@century21sean all I’m saying going by the numbers doesn’t always justify your option.

[@pacman3556]

so what are you trying to base it on? As century21 says just because you didn't see crime doesn't mean that it isn't there. If one city (hypothetically) has a million break and enters and another city only has two if your house was the only one of the two that were break and entered are you really trying to say that the city with two break and enters is not as safe just because you saw some crime? @@jeffwindrim975
