Neighbourhood Safety

Crime data for Inkster-Faraday shows notable fluctuations over the past decade. Property crime, the most common type, rose sharply from 309 incidents in 2023 to 451 in 2024 (46% increase), and violent crime also increased 41% to 127 incidents in 2024.

However, partial 2026 data indicates a dramatic drop, with only 49 property crimes and 8 violent incidents reported. Long-term trends show a general decline from 2017 peaks, but recent spikes in 2024-2025 suggest caution.

Overall, the safety trend appears unstable with significant year-over-year swings, though the sharp reduction in 2026 is promising if sustained.
