RentSafeTO-registered rental buildings within 1 km, with the City's latest evaluation score
Within a kilometre there are two RentSafeTO-registered apartment buildings — 150 rental units — one social or Toronto Community Housing. The nearest is 256 Sheldon Ave (868 m, 76 units, 7 storeys, built 1982), which scored 98 out of 100 at its July 2026 RentSafeTO evaluation.

The City's RentSafeTO register — rental apartment buildings of three or more storeys and ten or more units — with the score from each building's latest City evaluation (out of 100; poor scores trigger a full audit). LTB orders are final Landlord and Tenant Board orders naming the address (Jan 2026 – Jun 2026); fire-code violations are open items in Toronto Fire Services' inspection data. 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, Dec 14, 2021
This is a three-leg intersection with no south leg. Traffic is heaviest from the east: 2,739 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 49% of the total, against 319 from the north. Evening rush dominates here: 911 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:30 p.m., against 633 in the morning peak from 7:45 a.m. Trucks and buses were 11.1% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 5 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2021, 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
On Horner Ave between Thirtieth St and Carson St, 354 m from the corner, a 3-day count in November 2025 put the average speed at 45 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 54 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 59 km/h or more. That segment carries about 13,600 vehicles a day. Beta St between Rimilton Ave and Valermo Dr measured slower: 35 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 44 km/h (Oct 2025).
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Horner Ave · Thirtieth St – Carson St · 354 m | Nov 2025 · 3 days | 13,597 | 45 km/h | 54 km/h | 59 km/h |
| Beta St · Rimilton Ave – Valermo Dr · 380 m | Oct 2025 · 3 days | 1,183 | 35 km/h | 44 km/h | 48 km/h |
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.

Killed or seriously injured
Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings
One collision in 2016–2025 left someone seriously injured; it was not fatal. 1 pedestrian was among those hurt. It happened in daylight or lit conditions. The most recent was on Apr 23, 2018.
By year

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.

Source: Toronto Police Service, Theft From Motor Vehicle and Bicycle Thefts open data, records through Mar 17, 2023.
