Is it true that Toronto has a high crime rate especially teen crimes and at schools. The reason I am asking this is that I had to make a choice of staying either in Missisauga or Toronto and I had chosen Toronto. But, someone told me that don’t go to Toronto as the crime rate is high and its not safe with kids to live there, is this true??
If you decide toronto then try avoiding........
this major intersections or its proximiy.
Jane and Finch
Jane and wilson
Jane and Lawrence or is it finch and lawrence
and finch and warden.

Thanks madcow for the information,
We are a family of four that is hum do hamare do. And yes our budget is limited. We had decided to do the first landing in TO but now we have change of plans and are moving to Vancouver.
Once again thanks to all of you.
Vancouver? I used to live there before I moved to Toronto. Surrey has a large Desi population although most are second and third generation Canadian. Rents are reasonable, but its a long commute to downtown Vancouver. If you want to be closer to Vancouver downtown, have good Translink (bus) connections and yet economise, a safe and fairly good neighbourhood is Marpole. Try around 70th Avenue and Oak st. area. Walk around and you will see 'For Rent' ads posted on sidewalks and also look atthe local papers like the Vancouver sun classifieds. Downtown Eastside (East of Cambie ) can be a fairly unpleasant place to live I remember, but if you go further South on Commercial Dr, Main St, etc., it is OK.
Thanks madcow,
My husband will be joining BCIT in Burnaby and we have to be close around to that area, as he will be studying part time, working part time and it shouldn’t be much of a problem for him to commute. For the kids and me I think this place is ok especially I heard that Metrotown, Burnaby is a good area. We will be landing in the first week of December, 2005.
