Toronto Crime Map: All 158 Neighbourhoods Ranked (2025 Police Data)

By the Force Security team  ·  Updated July 28, 2026  ·  Source: Toronto Police Service Public Safety Data Portal, Neighbourhood Crime Rates open data

Toronto had 6,092 break-ins in 2025. That's down 10.7% from 6,824 the year before, and it's the second-lowest total in twelve years. Good news. It's also almost useless if you're trying to work out whether your own street is safe.

Here's why. In the University neighbourhood, break-ins ran at 730 per 100,000 residents. Over in Lambton Baby Point, the rate was 35. Same city, same year, and a 21 times difference depending on which side of it you live on.

So we built a Toronto crime rate by neighbourhood map from the Toronto Police Service open data. Pick an offence. Pick a year going back to 2014. Then search your own neighbourhood and see where you actually stand.

What this Toronto crime map covers

Nine offence types, all 158 neighbourhoods, and twelve years of history.

Property crime: break and enter, auto theft, theft from a motor vehicle, bike theft, and theft over $5,000. Violent crime: assault, robbery, shooting, and homicide.

You can flip between raw counts and rates per 100,000 residents. That matters more than it sounds. A big neighbourhood almost always racks up more incidents than a small one just because more people live there. The rate strips that out, so you're comparing risk instead of population.

The safest Toronto neighbourhoods for break-ins in 2025

Everybody publishes the worst-ten list. Almost nobody publishes this one. These are the ten Toronto neighbourhoods with the lowest break-in rates last year.

Lambton Baby Point had three break-ins all year. Three. Across a neighbourhood of 8,614 people. That's 18% of the city rate, and it's the quietest corner of Toronto by this measure.

Twelve years of Toronto crime map data

One year on its own can fool you. So here's what break-ins have done citywide since 2014, from the same police data set.

Toronto peaked at 8,438 break-ins in 2019. Then it crashed to 5,670 in 2021, when almost everyone was home almost all the time. It climbed back to 7,634 by 2023. It's fallen in each of the two years since.

At 6,092, 2025 is the second-lowest year in the whole series. The honest read? Break-ins really are trending down in Toronto. They're also still running at about seventeen a day.

Protecting a home in a higher-risk neighbourhood

We've been installing and monitoring security systems across the GTA, Hamilton and Niagara since 1988. So here's what actually helps.

Most residential break-ins are opportunistic. They go for your back door and the ground-floor windows nobody can see from the street. They're quick. That's exactly the behaviour deterrence and fast response interrupt, which is why the basics still beat the gadgets.

A monitored alarm on your doors and ground-floor windows covers the entry points that actually get used. Monitored cameras matter more in Toronto than most people realise, because Toronto Police run a verified response policy. An alarm signal on its own might not get a car dispatched. Video or audio confirmation is one of the accepted ways to prove a real break-in is happening.

Already have equipment on the wall from a previous owner, or a provider you're sick of? You usually don't need to replace any of it. We can often take over an existing system and monitor it ourselves. And if you're still weighing providers, our comparison of ADT, Telus, Bell and Force lays out the differences without the sales pitch.
