Guelph the top spot in safety from Stats Canada!
Overall Crime is down in Guelph, according to the 2009-2010 annual performance report released today.
The Guelph Police Services have found that year over year, property crimes fell by 18% and the Service’s rate of ‘solved’ crimes increased by 23%.
However something they continue to deal with is the rate of violent crimes which increased 10 percent.
Constable Mike Gatto tells 570 News despite that one area it’s still one of the safest spots in the country and what makes Guelph so safe is not the police service alone but also the community which backs that service.
According to Statistics Canada, Guelph is the safety city of its size in Canada for the fourth year in a row.
