Neighbourhood Safety
Crime in Mathers has shown mixed trends, with property crime fluctuating notably: after a peak of 272 incidents in 2019, it dropped to 135 in 2021, then rose again to 232 in 2024 and 216 in the first part of 2026. Violent crime spiked to 30 incidents in 2023 but decreased to 15 in 2025 and only 2 in partial 2026 data, suggesting recent improvement.
Overall, the neighbourhood experienced a significant drop in both property and violent crime from 2025 to 2026 (property down 95.8%, violent down 86.7%), indicating a sharp recent improvement. However, the longer-term pattern shows volatility, so buyers should consider the most current downward trend.
