SUMMARY: The Vancouver Police Department (VPD) has recently received increased community feedback about rising crime and disorder. To be responsive to community needs, the VPD utilizes this feedback – along with analysis of crime trends and calls for service, crime hotspots, intelligence and information provided by frontline staff – to inform operational and resource allocation decisions. To scientifically assess if such community feedback is indicative of broader public perception, the VPD commissioned Leger to conduct a survey of crime perception. This survey is indicative of the VPD’s long-standing use of independent firms to conduct research into public perception of crime and satisfaction with the VPD. Since 2008, the VPD has commissioned a survey on community satisfaction that assesses Vancouver residents and businesses on topics that include their perception of crime. This Community Crime Perception Survey supplements these prior surveys by further examining respondents’ perception of crime. Utilizing crime statistics alone as an indication of community safety can be problematic for two reasons. First, crime statistics do not include unreported crime. The level of unreported crime can be significant, which was confirmed in this Community Crime Perception Survey where it was found that 47% of victims of crime in Vancouver in the past year did not report the crime to police.

  • Vancouver Demographic Report – Killarney
    Vancouver Demographic Report – Killarney January 2019 The Vancouver Early Years Partnership (VEYP) and the Human Early Partnership (HELP) collaborated on a research project to produce detailed demographic profiles for all 21 Vancouver Neighbourhoods. These profiles have gathered the key data that we know about children and families in our city into one place. The intention of these profiles is to encourage thought, reflection, conversation and the desire to know more and do more. Our hope is that this information provides local planning tables, service providers, government, funders and others the data needed to work collaboratively to make changes that will improve the lives of children and their families. Thank you to Barry Forer, our lead researcher, and Pippa Rowcliffe from HELP; Peter Marriott from the City of Vancouver; Claire Gram and Lianne Carley from Vancouver Coastal Health for your advice and support! Finally, many thanks to the Ministry of Children and Family Development, Children First, for funding this project. Together we can make a difference for children!
