Is Remington Park a good place to live?

A tough set of grades. Remington Park’s overall C− puts it #787 of 858 in Ontario. It comes out better than 17% of Canadian towns. Housing is expensive (D). Police record more crime here than in most towns (C+). Health is its strong suit (B+). Its other grades sit near the middle: C+ for jobs & income and B− for walkability.

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. 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 Remington Park grades

Each subject compares Remington Park with Canadian towns of 2,500 or more, ordered by how far it is from the middle. Towns in other countries are graded separately.
