Neighbourhood Safety
Crime in Central St. Boniface has shown a mixed but generally worsening trend in recent years, with violent incidents rising from 105 in 2017 to 237 in 2023, though a small decline to 212 is noted in 2025. Property crime peaked at 1,139 in 2019 and has fluctuated, with 628 incidents in 2025. Traffic incidents spiked sharply in 2024 (26 incidents) but dropped to 12 in 2025.
The most recent partial data for 2026 shows dramatic reductions across all categories (only 35 property crimes and 21 violent incidents so far), but this likely reflects a partial-year count and should be interpreted with caution. Overall, the long-term trend suggests a need for vigilance, especially regarding property crime.
