    I applaud you for doing this video on a rather touchy subject. Crime is not always so discernible. You chose the typical areas we like to think are the real “source” of crime. It’s a little more complex than that. I noticed you did offer a positive note on future potential for these areas with “gentrification” on the rise in these areas. Is that a good thing? For whom? Or a solution? So where exactly to we place low income, old buildings, single parents, poverty. Gentrification is going to cause a bigger societal problem for everyone. This notion of good neighborhoods vs bad is not the solution. It eventually affects everyone. Where do we place all these families we displace with gentrification?? The reserves? I think we’ve done that before. There should be nobody living in tents or slums and shoving them out to make space for wealthier ppl and better real estate potential is not the answer. Who are all these ppl that can afford it? We need massive immigration (like it or not) for economic growth. Tax payer dollars to pay for all the debt we will never pay off. Canadians are asleep. You can’t build huge economic growth & increase GDP in a country with just mortgages. That’s not how it works. Those areas and run down apartments should be dealt with not with gentrification. Canada is a country with a small population, Toronto is stagnant, mediocre at best, public sector is way too high, private investments here are nothing to brag about. How is it possible that Toronto & Vancouver have the highest realest prices globally? Not based on the wealth of the ppl. This house obsession is sickening

    I been living in Toronto since 1995, for me the more people are being crammed in this city the worse it’s getting. In my neighborhood break ins has gone off the roof, assaults is now a normal thing. And now with this elected Mayor, this city is going to get much worse.

    Jane and Finch maybe in 2010, it's completely different now but still has that stigma attached being the most notorious neighborhood pre social media, Rexdale is inflated by jamestown and thistletown

    I moved to Malvern 20 years ago only to tell myself that you have to experience it yourself before you believe in what people say about the place. In the beginning, there was constant police presence at Malvern Mall but when Malvern Crew gang members were arrested, it has been very safe and quiet here.

    If you can buy any house in Toronto any where buy it , it doesn’t matter where you live , it’s a lot safer than driving 2 hours to the city every day , the odds of getting int a car accident are way more than being gunned down on the street , oh oh man down 😊

    I've lived in many areas of Toronto, and currently in Malvern and have been for 10 yrs. Used to have heavy gang presence and we do have shootings etc it's been a while since last one, but they're usually fatalities. I would def add Lawrence & Galloway down to Kingston Road and east Morningside. Def not an area you want to live. When I lived in Forrest Hill a young guy was shot w a shotgun in local park - drug deal I think. So stuff does happen anywhere. Would also stay out of area south east of St Lawrence market - used to hear lots of gun shots down there too.

    I lived in Jane/Finch for many years. I still have family there. I would not buy real estate there or raise a family there. It hasn’t changed. I work in Malvern. I wouldn’t buy there either. Stay out of Rexdale too. There are areas in Scarborough that are quite nice and I would live there. There are still some areas in North York that are nice but they are fewer and fewer now. North York used to be quite nice. It’s declined quite a bit in the last 40 years.

    You are somewhat right about Fairbanks. I moved here from Davisville/Bayview, and however ideal it is for living and raising a family, you can't beat the conveniences of Fairbanks, just about everything is superior and it will only get better when the LRT is finished. I miss the Bayview corridor, no question but west is best.

      But it is, The Black creek Pioneer Village explains it all. Pioneers settled in the area with forests, Black Creek and Downsview Dells. It's actually a beautiful area rich in wildlife and natural resources.
      My family and I moved to the area a year after arriving in Canada. There were many Italian, South American, Carribean and Asian families as well as Eastern Europeans.
      5 years later, most Italians sold their houses and moved to Woodbridge, King, Caledon, Kleinburg and Bolton.

      I don’t think it’s getting any better safety wise. It is getting more expensive, seeing houses going for over $1.2 million. But I don’t think it’s getting better, especially if you have kids… find better schools for them. I have lived in this area for over 30 years.
      It comes down to the government housing, single moms, gang culture that makes up 25% of the area.

    Solid video! A better cut off for moss park would be Gerrard street, as the beer store that attracted characters has been closed for some months now and is being redeveloped into condos, also the public library on Gerard that attracted characters is being closed and relocated. Therefore, a house between Gerrard and Carlton is a safe bet. Although, the city has ruined Allen Gardens, letting it become a homeless encampment

    I believe it is time to take Malvern off your list. I live in Scarborough Guildwood. Which is a safe area right next to Lake Ontario. The problem is Gang Wars between the Galloway Boys and the Danzig Boys. The police do a wonderful job. We have has several shootings in the area lately. The density of Community Housing overflow taking up rooms in 90% of the Motels on Kingston Rd. Exactly like happened on the Lakeshore in the early 2000.

I was Born in an area of Townhouses called London Green Court and our family moved to Scarborough when I was about 5 years old?

    Toronto is not supposed to be a city for Immigrants working for 5 years sent over by Elizabeth II then going back to their home country. It is supposed to be a National Park with the Chateau Royal York. Ottawa too is a National Park with the Chateau Laurier. Elizabeth II had both cities built on to push back against Canadians as we dont accept her as the Royalty of Canada which is the Royalty of Jesus Christ which is Hollywood Royalty which is Royal Indians of America as Toronto Tribe. I am from the Virgin Mary and the Rouge and Humber Indian Chiefs and Her Majesty In Right Of Canada as Queen of Canada and Royal Chieftain of Indians of America Natalie Helferty. There are no immigrants left in Toronto. There are Traffic Clones and Pedestrian Clones and the city is shut down since Covid. Real Estate Racketeering is illegal as a Buyer and Seller of China to come here and run up the Housing Prices to force new Affordable Housing into the GTA and onto the Greenbelt. Police have taken out 2/3 of the Public Housing now to avoid Immigrants coming in for Charles III from Africa moving in as Scammers. They were told to come over by the British from Nigeria and Kenya and Olivia Chow had to find shelters for them. The Africans are all dead now as God Ashed them as Scammers. We had to run the Somalians back to Somalia too. Toronto is not a patsy city for scammers to move in. We as the Toronto Tribe are taking ot down. Canadians that lived in Toronto could only live downtown as there is no water and sewer systems for the uptown zone. The downtown core is serviced by Ashbridges Bay STP but not for long. It will all be shut off as Toronto is being changed back into a National Park now that Elizabeth II is dead having run World War Three globally since 1945. She put her face on the money in Canada in 1953 and started an Immigrant Enslavement and Money Racket globally. It is nearly over. Getting rid of condo builders and Affordable Housing Builders is next. Then real estate agents too like this guy on the video. Why anybody as a real estate agent wouldnt know that there is no water and sewer system for Toronto is beyond me. That is a poor planner so dont trust real estate agents at all. They are scammers. They were sent by Elizabeth II to sell housing that is Evil Spirit made falling apart and is dangerpus in empty cities and towns. I had every Canadian move into the Chateaus of Canada and they have been there through Covid. I had Waze done as Live Action Gaming in Toronto from Christ Created Bugatti for 1400 Canadians too and that got rid of Traffic Clones and Construction Clones by lasers and now it is minimal Cloning as Elizabeth II is dead and her accounts have been frozen. The Hollywood North Movie Set as Toronto and New York City are nearing an end too as both Residents as Landowners want to temove the cities that Elizabeth II built on Crown Land First Nation Land and so too Ottawa that changed everything in one moment into a National Park again as they didnt have Mob there pushing back like Toronto has. We have Hong Kong and China Mob here and Fred the Hitman went put and shot them all dead and Car Bombed them. The Hong Kong and China Police were here after them but the Mob was staying one step ahead of Police. So Fred the Hitman was sent to kill the Mob. Nobody was spared. Ottawa has 4000 people only as all Immigrants stayed for 5 years only as they were forced to stay that long by Elizabeth II ordering them too. She wanted to be Queen of England so took over to order people around to leave home. I as Queen of Canada took over with God to order people to go home. Immigrants did not leave Toronto or Ottawa when I ordered them home as they chose to obey Elizabeth II as Slaves to her to work and run her money racket. If we as Royalty had our way there would be no money and everything created by God would be free. That is all food and entertainment as created by God. I have tried my best as Queen of Canada to make all Food and Entertainment Free but Elizabeth II charged fees and prices anyway trying to take over Canada and America against Me since 1968. She went ahainst my relations Queen Charlotte and King George too as Royalty of Canada since 1922. Her World War Three is ending by God. It will be another month of killing off her Mobsters as she was not a good person at all as Queen of England as not real Royalty of Jesus Christ as she claimed to be as a "cousin". I am though as created by God as God's Body. It is Queen King and Knights of Canada and they grew up in Richmond Hill and live now in the Royal York. The city will be down in 2 days as Police are working with God to remove all the remaining buildings. The Holy Land is Richmond Hill and Oak Ridges as the Site of Christ's Second Coming in 2008. This happened by Me as the Holy Grail and Lucifer the Lightbringer the King making love in Oak Ridges Forest and Christ returned to Earth through Us. The Book of Life was written through Me too as God returned from the Universe in 2008 and that was on my bed here on Northern Heights Drive in Richmond Hill. God had to wake up for allowing and accepting Hell on Earth. And so apologized. There is Heaven on Earth and Earth on Heaven United as One in Great Love Great Justice for all as Individuals to happen as the New World Order of Christ's Making in 2023 and 2024. Believe It Or Not. Which is a Ripley's Aquarium I had put in by Manitou. The Skydome I had put in by God in 1992 for the Toronto Blue Jays World Series as a also a Concert Stage. I have yet to sing there. I am all the Famous Singers and Actresses in Hollywood Movies. The Hollywood Royals are the Landowners of Toronto so stop trying to make a buck selling houses on our Royal Land. It is a futile existence to try to run Rackets on our Land as God knows everything. 🙏 😅
