Police publish crime only for their whole service area (Burnaby), not for neighbourhoods, so this is the figure for the whole area and says little about one street. How often police recorded each crime for every resident of the area, averaged over 2023–2025, ranked against the other Metro Vancouver police-service areas. Police count the most serious offence in each incident.
Air
No expressway within 2 km
None reported
Bands: traffic is high within 150 m of an expressway and moderate within 500 m; industrial is moderate under a tonne a year and high above. The industrial bands are ours, for orientation only: NPRI totals mix substances of very different toxicity. Releases are self-reported by facilities to Environment and Climate Change Canada’s National Pollutant Release Inventory (2024), and count the main air pollutants (nitrogen oxides, fine particles, volatile organic compounds, benzene, formaldehyde and metals). For today’s readings see Metro Vancouver’s air quality map.

Crashes reported to ICBC in which someone was injured or killed, from 2021 to 2025. ICBC records no separate fatal or serious level. Each crash is placed at an intersection, or midway between two for a mid-block crash, so counts near highway interchanges are dominated by highway traffic. Contains information licensed under ICBC’s Open Data Licence. All analysis, inferences, opinions, and conclusions drawn in this page are those of the authors, and do not reflect the opinions, position or policies of ICBC.
