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.
Parking
Every mapped lot within 2 km, Green P with peak occupancy, City EV charging and bike parking
Nearest lots: 55 m away, ≈63 spaces; 96 m away, ≈52 spaces; 137 m away, ≈602 spaces; 168 m away, ≈117 spaces; 170 m away, ≈17 spaces; 181 m away, ≈32 spaces.
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 — 14-hour, Oct 15, 2025
Traffic is heaviest from the west: 14,739 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 29% of the total, against 10,501 from the south. Most cyclists arrived from the south (60 of 147). Evening rush dominates here: 4,875 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:45 p.m., against 4,299 in the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.5% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. This is a fresh count, taken within the last year.
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 most recent midblock count on Kipling Ave between Dixon Rd and Kingsview Blvd (32 m away, Feb 2016) recorded volume only — about 10,908 vehicles a day — with no speed data.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kipling Ave · Dixon Rd – Kingsview Blvd · 32 m | Feb 2016 · 7 days | 10,908 | — | — | — |
| Dixon Rd · Kipling Ave – Blackfriar Ave · 130 m | Nov 2011 · 3 days | 17,236 | — | — | — |
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
The peak year was 2025, the most recent in the window, with 78 collisions. 127 collisions (20%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 117 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 18% of collisions, in line with the citywide 16%. 36 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (6%), typical for the city. Since January 2026, 37 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Jun 25, 2026.

Killed or seriously injured
Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings
None of the three serious-injury collisions in 2016–2025 was fatal. 2 pedestrians and 1 cyclist were among those hurt. 1 of the 3 happened in darkness — 33%, about the citywide 39%. The most recent was on Nov 18, 2023. Going back to 2006, the total is 8.
By year

| Fatal | 0 | |
| Involving a pedestrian | 2 | #108 of 879 |

| In darkness | 1 | 33% here vs 39% citywide |
| All KSI since 2006 | 8 | latest Nov 18, 2023 |
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.
