Neighbourhood Safety
Crime data for South Point Douglas shows a mixed but generally concerning trend. Property crime rose from 188 incidents in 2017 to 408 in 2025, with a sharp 34.2% increase in 2025 alone. Violent crime spiked dramatically in 2023 (324 incidents) and remained high at 293 in 2024, although a -9.6% decline was noted that year.
The partial 2026 data suggests a possible improvement (only 20 violent and 19 property incidents recorded so far), but this covers only a short period. Overall, the neighbourhood has experienced worsening crime rates through 2025, particularly in property and violent categories.
Who Is This Home For
109-540 Waterfront Drive offers strong transit connectivity and an impressive array of nearby amenities, making it a convenient urban location. The walkable access to schools, parks, dining, and cultural venues is a significant plus for active residents.
However, the rising crime rates, especially property and violent offenses, are a major concern.
