Frequently asked

What is Downsview like as a neighbourhood?

What does Downsview score best on?

How are Downsview's scores calculated?
Each lens is a 0 to 100 weighted composite of percentile-ranked sub-components, computed from population-weighted dissemination-area data. Because it is a weighted blend rather than a rank, a score of 60 does not mean "better than 60% of neighbourhoods": the percentile figures on this page state that standing separately. Higher is better, except climate which reflects mapped hazard exposure.
