Apartment buildings nearby
RentSafeTO-registered rental buildings within 1 km, with the City's latest evaluation score
111 registered apartment buildings with 13,548 rental units stand within a kilometre of the corner, 14 of them social or Toronto Community Housing — 4.8× the median for a Toronto intersection.

One building of the 111 scored below 70; the average is 92, about the citywide norm.

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, Apr 25, 2023
The north leg carries the load — 5,257 southbound vehicles, or 43% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 774. Most cyclists arrived from the south (50 of 84). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 1,708 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 1,674 from 4:45 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.9% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 3 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since. 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 Yonge St between Montgomery Ave and Roselawn Ave (94 m away) recorded an average of 39 km/h in its 7-day count in June 2019; 85% of drivers were at or under 49 km/h. That segment carries about 20,000 vehicles a day. The reading is 7 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Erskine Ave (93 m away, 30 km/h limit), 3.0% of the 115,287 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 40 km/h or more — a small minority.

| Yonge St · Montgomery Ave – Roselawn Ave · 94 m | Jun 2019 · 7 days | 19,973 | 39 km/h | 49 km/h | 56 km/h |

School-zone speed sign 93 m
Erskine Ave (eastbound), 33 Erskine Avenue · 115,287 vehicles logged in July 2026 · runs weekdays, 7 am - 9 pm.
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
2024 was the peak year (22 collisions), and 2025 closed with 16. 9% of collisions here involved an injury, below the 15% citywide. 27 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 18% of collisions, in line with the citywide 16%. People walking or cycling were involved in 5% of collisions here (citywide: 5%). Since January 2026, 10 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Jun 15, 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
The KSI record for this intersection is empty back to 2006. The police all-collisions file records 1 fatal collision here in 2016–2025; the KSI file, which is compiled separately and geocoded to the nearest leg, places it just outside the 65 m radius.
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 two thefts from vehicles and four bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — about the median for an intersection with any reported theft.
By year
| 2016–2025 | Reported | 2023–2025 | Since Jan 2026 | Most often from |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Theft from a vehicle | 2 | 1 | 0 | street/outdoor (2) |
| Bicycle theft | 4 | 1 | 0 | commercial premises (2), street/outdoor (1) |
Source: Toronto Police Service, Theft From Motor Vehicle and Bicycle Thefts open data, records through Nov 24, 2024. 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 North Toronto.
