Property Review
Bus & Public Transit
784 Stella Avenue is exceptionally well-connected to public transit, with multiple stops within a 5-minute walk. Northbound and Southbound Arlington at Dufferin are just 53 m and 86 m away, respectively, both served by Route 28, which runs frequently along this corridor. Additional stops along Selkirk Avenue (Routes D17) are within 250 m, providing convenient east-west travel across the North End.
Route 28 alone links to key destinations such as Misericordia Health Centre (hospital), Sobeys (supermarket), and several schools including Isaac Newton School, King Edward Community School, Met School, St. Edward's School, and Winnipeg South Academy. Route D17 also serves Holy Ghost School, Norquay School, and Safeway, making this property ideal for families and commuters without a car.

Neighbourhood Safety
Crime in Dufferin has shown a notable downward trend in recent years. Violent incidents peaked in 2021 at 203 but have since decreased to 147 in 2024 and dropped further to just 9 in the partial year 2026. Property crime also fell sharply from a high of 376 in 2021 to 17 in 2026, while 'Other' incidents went from 120 (2021) to only 12 in 2026.
Drug-related offenses have also generally declined, from 21 in 2017 to 10 in 2025 and 0 in 2026 (partial data). The overall trajectory suggests the neighbourhood has become significantly safer, particularly after 2022, though 2024 saw a slight uptick in violent and drug incidents, which appear to have been a temporary spike.
Who Is This Home For
784 Stella Avenue is ideally suited for first-time buyers and families seeking an affordable entry point into Winnipeg's real estate market with excellent transit access and walkable amenities. The nearby schools and parks, combined with improving safety trends, make it a compelling option for families with children.
Commuters will benefit from the frequent Route 28 and D17 buses connecting to downtown, shopping, and healthcare. Investors may also find value here, as the area's revitalization and decreasing crime could lead to long-term appreciation, though they should note the still-elevated incidences compared to more affluent neighbourhoods.
