Not sure how the Toronto media has managed to ignore this so far. They usually LOVE reporting on city rankings!
The Economist recently released their "Safe Cities Index".
http://safecities.economist.com/wp-.../EIU_Safe_Cities_Index_2015_white_paper-1.pdf
Of 50 global cities, Toronto ranked #8.
Individual categories:
Digital Security: #11
Health Security: #21
Infrastructure Safety: #8
Personal Safety: #7
More interestingly, on the page asking "Where is the best place to live?" Toronto ranks #1.
"To provide a broad picture of how cities perform,
we have tracked how the 50 cites in our Index
perform across a range of other indexes created
by The Economist Intelligence Unit. Three of
these indexes are at the city level (Safe Cities,
Liveability Rankings, Cost of Living) and three
are at the country level (Business Environment
Rankings, Democracy Index, Global Food Security
Index).
The average rankings for the 25 best-performing
cities are set out below. Toronto in Canada
is a consistent performer across the five other
indexes, putting it top overall."
