How these grades are computed
Grades from A to E, computed automatically from open data (police, city, census). Each criterion ranks this neighbourhood against the other neighbourhoods of the same city: A for the best-placed fifth, E for the lowest fifth. A relative position, not a verdict.
Agincourt North reported a major crime rate of 8.6, which sits below the city average, and that rate has been falling. Break-ins are also below the city average, while the housing stock leans toward rental units in low-rise buildings rather than condominium towers.
Crime and break-ins
Toronto Police Service recorded 257 major crimes in Agincourt North in the latest year, down from 290 the year before, a change of -11.4%. That puts the neighbourhood's rate at 8.6, which is below the citywide rate of 13.2 and ranks it 30 among Toronto's neighbourhoods on this measure. The trend here is falling, matching the direction seen across much of the city.
The most frequent category was vehicle thefts, accounting for 38.1% of all major crimes reported. Break-ins added 28 incidents, for a rate of 0.9, below the citywide rate of 1.9, and that figure is also falling year over year.

Housing stock
The census counted 9,090 occupied dwellings in Agincourt North. Condominiums make up 26.6% of the stock, and tall apartment buildings account for 24.1%, suggesting most homes here are in smaller or low-rise structures rather than towers.
Renters occupy 21.5% of households, well below the citywide renter share of 48.1%, pointing to a neighbourhood weighted toward owner-occupied homes. Older dwellings built up to the early post-war years make up only 3.8% of the stock, so most of what's here was built well after that period.

Rents in the Toronto region
Agincourt North itself doesn't have its own rent survey, but CMHC's regional figures for the Toronto area give a sense of the broader rental market a mover would face. Bachelor units averaged $1,491 in 2025, smaller units (one bedroom) averaged $1,761, family-sized units averaged $2,045, and the largest units averaged $2,294.
These are regional averages across the Toronto CMA, not figures specific to Agincourt North, so actual asking rents in the neighbourhood may differ from these benchmarks.
Practical notes for movers
With break-ins below the city average and falling, Agincourt North doesn't stand out as a high-risk area for property crime, though basic home security habits remain a sensible precaution anywhere. Renters moving in may want to look into tenant insurance, since it isn't automatically provided with a lease.
Given the ownership-leaning housing stock, with renters at only 21.5% of households, buyers should expect more competition for owner-occupied homes than for rentals. Anyone planning to buy would benefit from getting mortgage pre-approval sorted out before starting a serious search, especially given regional rent levels that make owning versus renting a real trade-off to weigh.
