Is Eastview a good place to live?
Eastview’s grades pull in different directions. Cost of living is its weak spot (D). The neighbourhood’s overall grade of C puts it better than 28% of Canadian towns, #77 of 102 in Saskatchewan. Crime runs high (C−). Jobs and pay hold up well (B+). Health is a strength too (B+).
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.
