RentSafeTO-registered rental buildings within 1 km, with the City's latest evaluation score
27 registered apartment buildings with 2,077 rental units stand within a kilometre of the corner, five of them social or Toronto Community Housing.

One building of the 27 scored below 70; the average is 86, below the 90 typical of Toronto intersections.

Each building links to its full record on LandlordReport. Condominiums and houses are not registered.

Lot count and area from the City's topographic mapping of parking-lot footprints (every visible surface lot, public or private); spaces are estimated at one per 30 m² of lot. Lots not run by Green P are private, commercial or institutional and may be for customers or residents only. Green P spaces and average daily peak occupancy from the Toronto Parking Authority's quarterly dataset (* = capacity from the 2019 car-park list; rates are not shown because that list is stale — check Green P). EV chargers are City-operated only; on-street and underground parking are not included.
Traffic volume
The City's latest turning-movement count — 8-hour, Nov 19, 2008
This is a three-leg intersection with no north leg. The east leg carries the load — 4,073 westbound vehicles, or 51% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 360. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,441 vehicles in the hour from 5:00 p.m., 34% above the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. (1,079). Heavy vehicles made up 3.3% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 18 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2008, not today's volume. It was an 8-hour count, which is not directly comparable with the 14-hour counts the City has used since September 2023.
Approach figures are vehicles entering the intersection from that leg over the whole count. A count is one day's traffic, not an annual average; the City recounts on an ad-hoc schedule.
How fast traffic moves here
Midblock speed counts on the intersection's streets, the nearest school-zone speed sign, and traffic calming
The City's counter on St Clarens Ave between Lane S of College and E of St Clarens and Lane S of College and E of Lansdowne (60 m away) recorded an average of 26 km/h in its 5-day count in March 2011; 85% of drivers were at or under 35 km/h. That segment carries about 700 vehicles a day. The reading is 15 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Lansdowne Ave (128 m away, 40 km/h limit), 0.0% of the 16,574 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — almost none. 2 speed humps slow traffic on St Clarens Avenue between Dundas St W and College St, and 1 more calmed segment ends here.

Midblock counts are automatic counters laid across the road for one to seven days; the 85th-percentile speed is the figure engineers use — 85% of drivers were at or below it. Counts are ad hoc, so some are years old. A midblock reading is not the speed through the intersection itself, and posted limits are not in the count data.
All police-reported collisions
Every collision reported to Toronto Police within 65 m, any severity, 2016–2025
2019 was the peak year (8 collisions), and 2025 closed with 1. 21% of collisions here involved an injury, above the 15% citywide. 8 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 21% of collisions, a higher hit-and-run share than the city's 16%. People walking or cycling were involved in 10% of collisions here (citywide: 5%). Since January 2026, 2 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window.

Killed or seriously injured
Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings
The KSI record for this intersection is empty back to 2006.
KSI = killed or seriously injured. A collision is counted if its recorded location is within 65 m of this intersection's centreline node, whether the police coded it as intersection-related or mid-block. Records can lag a year or more, so the current year is excluded from rankings.
Thefts reported at this corner
Thefts from vehicles and bicycle thefts that Toronto Police have offset to this intersection, 2016–2025
Toronto Police place eight thefts from vehicles and three bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — about the median for an intersection with any reported theft. The pace has been steady at around 1.1 a year. 88% of the vehicle thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots. Since January 2026, 1 more has been reported, the latest on Apr 18, 2026.

Source: Toronto Police Service, Theft From Motor Vehicle and Bicycle Thefts open data, records through Apr 18, 2026. Police offset every occurrence to the nearest intersection before publishing, so these are thefts on the streets and premises around this node, not necessarily at the corner itself. Other offences are published by neighbourhood only — see Dufferin Grove.
