Neighbourhood Safety
Overall crime in Booth peaked in 2022 with 109 violent incidents and 224 property crimes, but has shown a downward trend since then. In 2024, violent incidents dropped 18% to 73, and property crimes fell 12.5% to 175. The most recent partial data for 2026 (only 3 months) shows a dramatic reduction, with only 3 violent and 15 property incidents recorded.
However, 2025 saw a spike in 'Other' crimes (48 incidents, up 77.8% from 2024) and a return to higher violent crime (108 incidents, up 47.9%), so the longer-term trend remains mixed. The neighbourhood has experienced property crime rates that are moderate for Winnipeg, but the 2026 partial data suggests a potential improvement if sustained.
Who Is This Home For
209 Athlone Drive is ideally suited for families due to its proximity to multiple schools (Bruce Middle, Athlone, Collège Sturgeon Heights) and Grace Hospital, plus parks and playgrounds within walking distance. The excellent transit connections, including Route D15 to downtown and major supermarkets, make it a strong choice for commuters.
First-time buyers will appreciate the walkable access to everyday amenities and the recent improvement in crime statistics, though the area's higher violent crime rates in recent years may give some pause. Investors could consider the property for its stable rental demand driven by schools and transit, but should monitor crime trends closely.
