How it's changing
These municipalities don't publish building permits by neighbourhood, so we can't chart construction here yet.
Safety
Neighbourhood-level crime figures aren't available for District of North Vancouver. Policing there is by the RCMP or a municipal police department, and neither publishes open crime counts by neighbourhood. Check Statistics Canada's crime tables for municipality-wide trends, and the local police website for crime maps. Why this is missing.
