For anyone that doenst know Toronto.. this isnt the worst hood in Toronto. This is Regent Park which used to be really bad but got gentrified. Toronto has a lot of housing projects thru out the city. Like the lawrence heights projects, Projects in Jane and finch, Jamestown projects to name a few. But they are located between middle class/rich neighbourhoods.
Yeah, I worked in that area for 10 years. Had a friend who lived in St James apartments/ Sherbourne. Took transit there and walked. Never had one issue in 10 years.
Regent and Moss Park was hella cracked out back in the day. Basehead hookers all over the place too (Hooker Harvey’s..lol) I used to hit up crazy loft parties down there back in the 90’s. Went to school with a lot of Regent kids and they put in that work..nuff said. The yuppies snatched up a lot of those Victorian Houses and formed really aggressive neighborhood coalitions, teaming up with the cops and put pressure on the city to not allow anymore crack house SRO’s and push the hookers outta there. Gentrification happened fast especially when half of Regent was demolished.
Interesting tour. Most of that city looks fine, however I note the Canadians are saying these areas are gentrified now and the real hoods are elsewhere.
This is correct. Most projects in DT Toronto have been torn down or in the process of it. They've been or being replaced by quite nice government assisted housing. To be honest, better then the conditions I'm living in. Also, because DT Toronto is so expensive, it doesn't get to bad because some of the remaining hoods (such as Moss Park Projects) are pretty isolated as opposed to having another project a few blocks away. The suburbs are where most of bad projects are, but there are plans to tear those down and replace them with nice housing too.
That's neat you're doing Canada Hoods now. If you ever come to Winnipeg my recommendation for you would be places like Selkirk Ave, North Main, Higgins Ave. We can do a co-production if you're ever here :-)
One of the differences in Toronto's hoods compared to the US, is that most of these places are low-income or have people with mental health issues, but they're not really dangerous... no one is gonna shoot you
Was hoping to see my old neighbourhood (Mount Dennis) - although I don't know how it has changed since I lived there (it wasn't great at the time though good people). If you're doing Canadian cities, Ottawa's got Vanier, Caldwell, Russell road, parts of the downtown east end etc. plus a few neighbourhoods in Gatineau that would be worth showing IMO - the contrast between the sleepy touristy government town capital and the poverty in parts of the city always strikes me.
Good job! Commenting a third time: 2:25 Queen and Sherbourne is a rough corner, lots of addicts and some violence, usually kept between them. 3:19 is Moss Park public housing but across from it, the streets are multi-million dollar 19th century homes. That part of Toronto has a lot of contrasts right beside each other. Walk a block away from junkies and you've got wealthy people watering their gardens. Jane and Finch, parts of Scarborough, Keele and Lawrence are the kind of places where the issues really happen. But even then, you'd likely have to wait days to see anything scary.
there's plenty of hoods in Toronto the thing is they're small concentrated areas that are far apart from each other so he'd have to drive a while to get to all of them
Love your videos. I'm late to this video but well done as always. As a 6th generation Torontonian, I can say our biggest problem is weak politicians and lax justice. Our crime rate is low compared to similar-sized US cities like Chicago, but we have a lot of enabled addicts who came to Toronto during Covid and are all over the downtown near the legal shooting gallery at Dundas and Victoria Sts. Also, the city rented some downtown hotels for three years for the homeless. And, they are begging all over and some are violent. As I type this, we have had a murder and multiple stabbings on transit. Plus, a lunatic just this week shoved an 89-year old woman on Yonge St, who fell and hit her head. Dead.
I’ve lived on Dundas & George since 1992 and it’s all turning into condos everywhere you look. All the people with no money are going to Niagara Falls, Windsor, Thunder Bay etc.
..bottom line, there are very dangerous hoods all over the world 🗺..as a recovering addict, it’s something you realize early on…it’s the poverty and hopelessness and easy access to drugs and lethal weapons that have brought many hoods to the brink of no return and some into a kinda zombie land, Kensington in Philadelphia, US is a good example, but it could be anywhere.. Duke Bootee said it best in “The Message” by Grandmaster Flash “Don’t push me cause i’m close to the edge, i’m trying not to lose my head..”…stay safe and stay strong and stay positive..New York June 29, 2022
The worst parts from back in my day living in Toronto in 2006 or 2005 around the time of the "year of the gun" was Jane and Finch, the Albion area around Etobicoke, Scarborough, Lawrence Heights aka "Jungle" close to where i used to live.
7:30 crazy.... i grew up in that area, pelham gardens had a bad reputation back in the 80's. Low income housing in that area brought in some riff raff. But there was a ton of good areas and working class families with tons on kids and activities to do, they called it the junction area growing up. it's close to High Park which is a very expensive area in Toronto to live.
Bro stfu nothing is going to happen to him even the most dangerous hoods are safe for innocents at day time u r acting like top5 is going to jump out of nowhere and start shooting more innocent people
toronto isnt as safe as u think, doesnt matter where you are anything can happen. i was just 15 going to meet up with some friends in a "nice part" of toronto and got jumped, robbed and it was ina nice area too lool.
As a Torontonian, I have lived and visited everywhere even the bad areas. Such as jane/finch, Jane/Tretheway, jamestown, Malvern, Lawrence Heights. Only one place I have had a gun pulled on me, and that was Jane. Tretheway. Toronto I believe is very safe compared to any and all American cities, towns etc
this too close to downtown its all gentrified... those house probably almost 2 mil (CAD) if they went on the market (theyre being rented). The west end is a lot worse and Scarborough still has its spots but we're cleaning up more and more. tbh tho im just glad you made the trip up!
All the buildings that are boarded up at the beginning are being torn down to put more condos up. Just what they need downtown, more condos. Having said that, I worked in the Moss Park area for YEARS and I have seen some shit, but I never felt like my life was at risk. Just don't mess with people and treat them with respect and usually everything is all good.
Thanks for clarifying. I wondered what was happening with those boarded up buildings. I heard Toronto had a housing crisis so it's no surprise some developers are going to throw up some more condos.
Ya I think that's the thing about our 'hoods' - they tend to be lower income and have lots of people who are suffering from drug addictions. But it's not like you're gonna get shot by a drive by shooter...
America is right beside Canada, and in comparison Canada is safer than the US, so a lot of people think that because Canada is safer in the US that means there's no bad areas there, when there's in fact a lot of violence in Canadian neighborhoods as well, it just doesn't get the same reputation, because the US is the next door neighbor and because of the Canadians are "nice" stereotype
Just like any other countries. Canada has his share of problems. Cities like Winnipeg has a high crime rate that can compare to other US cities. Not all Canadians are nice, you will quick realize it if you walk the wrong part of some cities. But it is indeed a great county nonetheless
Toronto : a small island of wealth and beauty surrounded by huge areas of struggling communities. The reason behind Torontonians having elected a drug addict mayor a couple of years ago has to do with the fact that the guy spoke the language of the struggling communities and didn't try to hide the city's many problems under the rug of Canadian "niceness".
There is not really dangerous hoods in Montreal, just like Toronto doesnt have also. But the area in the east side of Montreal north that is between Rolland, Langelier, Leger and Maurice duplessis bd is the one he should go to. Lot of history there and its starting to get a bit crazy at time.
You open to where i as a 20 yr old student nurse used to have to travel alone with a medical bag doing Public health visits in tenements, board8ng houses for alc9holics. Pre cell phone days. It was scary. Supervisors told us we wouldn't be harmed because the locals knew that I'd they hurt isctheircwelfare would be stopped....oh yah real helpful. Only found one client dead. I called the cops.
Most of the boarded buildings are gone and condos are now there…Regent Park has changed a lot. Sherbourne Street, Dundas to Queen Street, is sh*tty but I wouldn’t say they’re that dangerous. Try Jane and Finch or parts of Scarborough.
I don't think the standard of "dangerous" really applies to any neighbourhood in Toronto. Maybe rough or a bit worn down, but even the more notorious neighbourhoods in the city aren't really that bad for the average person.
@@kiddo7711 i was wrong 86 shootings in 2020 not sure about 2022 but i seen it on this video ua-cam.com/video/55LV3uhEbb0/v-deo.html but idk if its facts could be cap 🤷🏽♂️ i think it could be true tho 460 shootings in Toronto in 2020 that neighborhood is bound to have a lot of shootings
@@ufos6942 I've seen that video too, childsuhpport makes some good Toronto street content, but I'm pretty sure that stat is cap maybe it was a typo or something, I know Lawrence Heights gets shot up a lot but I don't think there were 86 DIFFERENT shootings in one year in that small ass area in the city, cuz there's so many other areas in the city that get shot up frequently too.
@@kiddo7711 you're probably right 86 shootings wit a population of 5k is crazy but i remember seeing a video on citynews and it said a neighborhood in Toronto had 46 shootings can't remember which hood tho it might have been mount olive or martin grove i think it was one of the hoods that lil bk shot up
I grew up in regent Park it's not a bad area at all. It used to be bad but it's now considered middle class. You need to go to geared to income living to to find the slums. Sherborne and Dundas is a rougher area. I live there now
As I watched the video, I was surprised by the lack of trash and litter, how well kept the houses and lawns were... I did see the graffiti and the abandoned building in a commercial area... Even there, there was no trash or litter... The high rise apartment buildings were well kept as well... Charlie titled the video as "Toronto's most dangerous neighborhoods"... Maybe some of the streets that Charlie didn't drive down are worse... And the danger comes at night... My wife and I honeymooned in Toronto 41 years ago and were surprised by its cleanliness then... We stayed at the Inn on the Park hotel....
Toronto only has areas that are poorer and run down but the crime and violence is not there! Anywhere in toronto is safe and chill to walk or drive thru and people just keep to themselves. Can not even compare to the feeling of being in an America hood
You’re right tho. Toronto hoods are super insidious. I stayed up in Toronto for a while in the mid 90’s to about 06 then moved back down to New York. (Upper Manhattan) Toronto crews will set one up and catch you slipping in a blink of an eye. I doubt an outsider could flex around Shoreham or The Connections. Look up what happened at the Danzig Blocko. I never ducked from bullets in NY, but I did while living in Toronto. It’s wild because you don’t see it coming…you’ll feel the friction in the air and then out come the hammers.
@@Bpabrown148 apparently that don’t happen very often cause they only had 85 murders for 3 million people, that’s considered the safest city in America right there. So many cities in America 1/4 the size of Toronto with higher murder counts
@@chocolatechipslime for US standards its nothing but keep in mind that its not that low if you compare it with other first world countries outside the continent. 80% of these homicides are all concentrated in small areas around the community housings projects. Theres been two 13 years old kid that shot and killed other teenagers this year, fourth of the victims are younger than 19 And its for the most part all happening in the black communities. For a 1st world country, i think its kinda bad.
@@chocolatechipslime Safest city in America? NYC was considered the safest big city in America…as a matter of fact, some dude just got sliced to death over a lighter on W4th (Greenwich Village) right next to my work. The average price for a crib is 2 million in that neighborhood. Doesn’t matter what the stats a say or what you read online..safe is a relative word.
@@Bpabrown148 I’m saying if Toronto were placed in America it would be the safest city. Yes safety is relative but you can’t tell me your chances at becoming a victim of a crime is the same in Toronto and Detroit or Cheyenne Wyoming and Juarez Mexico. Yes both have crime but one has a lot more

My wife and I honeymooned in Toronto 41 years ago and were surprised by its cleanliness then... We stayed at the Inn on the Park hotel....
Lol you are in the nice areas lol. I can shoe a crap tonnof trash lol
the abandon building you saw are abandoned because they are being torn down for a some highrises.
Canadians: nahhh you don’t even know. There’s a dorito bag on my block RIGHT NEEOWWW
That's the weird thing about Toronto. It looks nice but can also be really dangerous. Whereas somewhere like Vancouver has obvious dangerous places.
home of smoke dawg
This "hood" looks better than most places in the US.
Type Vancouver eastside, it looks like Los Angeles skid row if not worse
American money: Worthless donation.
You are so good at what you do. I've lived in Toronto all my life and I don't even know the streets as well as you do. I can get lost in a closet. lol
Lol
Charlie ever been to Minnesota? It’s small asf but crazy now at the same time😭NY all day tho💯
Toronto only has areas that are poorer and run down but the crime and violence is not there! Anywhere in toronto is safe and chill to walk or drive thru and people just keep to themselves. Can not even compare to the feeling of being in an America hood
You’re right tho. Toronto hoods are super insidious. I stayed up in Toronto for a while in the mid 90’s to about 06 then moved back down to New York. (Upper Manhattan) Toronto crews will set one up and catch you slipping in a blink of an eye. I doubt an outsider could flex around Shoreham or The Connections. Look up what happened at the Danzig Blocko. I never ducked from bullets in NY, but I did while living in Toronto. It’s wild because you don’t see it coming…you’ll feel the friction in the air and then out come the hammers.
@@Bpabrown148 apparently that don’t happen very often cause they only had 85 murders for 3 million people, that’s considered the safest city in America right there. So many cities in America 1/4 the size of Toronto with higher murder counts
@@chocolatechipslime for US standards its nothing but keep in mind that its not that low if you compare it with other first world countries outside the continent. 80% of these homicides are all concentrated in small areas around the community housings projects. Theres been two 13 years old kid that shot and killed other teenagers this year, fourth of the victims are younger than 19
And its for the most part all happening in the black communities. For a 1st world country, i think its kinda bad.
@@chocolatechipslime Safest city in America? NYC was considered the safest big city in America…as a matter of fact, some dude just got sliced to death over a lighter on W4th (Greenwich Village) right next to my work. The average price for a crib is 2 million in that neighborhood. Doesn’t matter what the stats a say or what you read online..safe is a relative word.
@@Bpabrown148 I’m saying if Toronto were placed in America it would be the safest city. Yes safety is relative but you can’t tell me your chances at becoming a victim of a crime is the same in Toronto and Detroit or Cheyenne Wyoming and Juarez Mexico. Yes both have crime but one has a lot more
Looks almost as dangerous as downtown Disney
Young Merkules🤙
It looks like rich neighborhood in Vancouver tho.
You should see East Hastings, Vancouver.
Worst in North America.
