Is Shaughnessy Park a good place to live?

Real strengths, and real weak spots. The weak point is safety (D). Overall, Shaughnessy Park earns a B−, better than 48% of Canadian towns. It ranks #68 of 181 in Manitoba. Where it does best is walkability (A+). Its other grades sit near the middle: C+ for cost of living and B for jobs & income.

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.
