Lethbridge? More like Deathbridge.

Oh snap. I wonder if they include prison violence in our numbers? That might skew them a bit?

Can’t find the actual survey which was conducted by a rental listings company, but according to one source, the data was from Statistics Canada, and included the crime severity index, the non-violent and violent crime severity indexes, the crime-solving rate, as well as the number of citizens per police officer.

Thanks. Personally, I think it would be good to look back at this in a few years when the next census happens to see where things stand? I have a feeling Kingston has grown a lot in just the past couple of years and we need updated demographics which account for this.

Probably included theft, which we have a lot of.
