Neighbourhood Safety
Crime in Meadowood has shown a notable decrease in recent years, with violent incidents dropping from 100 in 2025 to just 5 in 2026 (down 95%), and property crimes falling from 194 to 14 (-92.8%). Total incidents plunged from 141 in 2025 to 24 in 2026, marking a significant improvement.
However, earlier years (2017–2025) saw generally rising trends in property and violent crimes, with a peak in 2025. The dramatic downturn in 2026 suggests recent improvements, but long-term data indicates caution is warranted.
Who Is This Home For
172 Sterling Avenue is well-suited for families due to its proximity to Victor H. L. Wyatt School and Dakota Collegiate, along with nearby parks like Riel Park and Meadowood Park. The availability of transit routes 552 and 556 also makes it a good choice for commuters needing access to medical facilities and supermarkets.
The recent sharp decline in crime and abundance of local amenities (Sobeys, Shoppers Drug Mart, fitness centers) also appeal to first-time buyers looking for a balanced, walkable neighborhood.
