Is Lord Roberts a good place to live?

A town of contrasts. The weak point is safety (D). It lags on cost of living as well (C−). Where it does best is walkability (A+). Put together, the subjects come to a C− overall, ranking #132 of 181 in Manitoba. On that grade it does better than 25% of Canadian towns.

Rents here are the metro area's average, shared by every town and neighbourhood in it. Safety less sure: this is the whole city's figure, because the city doesn't publish open neighbourhood crime rates. 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.
