Is Reynolds a good place to live?

Housing is within reach (A−). Health outcomes fall short of most towns (D). It is hard to get around without a car (D−). Incomes are on the low side (C−).

With fewer than 2,500 residents, Reynolds gets subject grades but no overall one among Canadian towns.

This town's rent is the 2021 census rent scaled to 2025 by its province's ratio of surveyed to census rents: no rental survey covers it, so its Cost Grade is less sure. Safety less sure: no police service names this town, so its crime figure is the nearest police detachment's, shared with a wider area. Crime here is counted against the people who live here, but many visitors or second-home owners add to it, so the rate per resident runs higher than residents' own risk. No School Grade: this province doesn't publish comparable results school by school. Health is graded on the health region's survey figures and life expectancy, with the distance to hospital giving the town its own spread.

How Reynolds grades

How grading works
