Source: Toronto Police Service, Neighbourhood Crime Rates — occurrences by the neighbourhood where they were reported, rates per 100,000 residents using the City's population estimate (20,648 for Bendale-Glen Andrew). The five Major Crime Indicators are the first five rows; * marks the other categories the police publish. "vs city" compares the neighbourhood rate with the all-Toronto rate for the same year; "5-year change" is the change in the neighbourhood's own rate since 2020. Rates are per resident, so neighbourhoods with large daytime populations — downtown, malls, transit hubs — score higher than the risk to residents alone. Thefts from vehicles and bicycle thefts are also shown corner by corner on the intersection pages above.
