Is Worthington a good place to live?
Worthington grades low on several counts. Its weakest subject is cost of living (D). The neighbourhood’s overall grade of D puts it better than a tenth of Canadian towns, #172 of 181 in Manitoba. Safety is weaker too (D). Getting around on foot or by bus is easy (A+). Residents are healthier than most (B+). Incomes are on the low side (D).
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.
