While there is no doubt that lifestyle is first class, those coming to Calgary should not expect a crime free environment.
Personally I think all the crime, as with most cities in the world is linked to drugs.

Canada (2005) 2.0
USA 4.8- New York 18.8, Washington 68
Russia 19 South Africa 50.1 Japan 0.23
I do not think you have to worry yet compared to other countries such as Russia or South America.
I assume Belfast is high due to IRA/loyalist activity etc.
Edmonton Biker gangs?

:scared:I lived in cities including Calgary in Canada and London UK and I was not worried about so much about crime that it would cause me to think about moving.
I would be worried living in the States in areas such as Dallas , Washington and NY or European cities such as Amsterdam, Lisbon, Moscow(high murder rates).
Living in sleepy Oxfordshire village now, not alot go on here in the way of crime (it too quite sometimes).

Re: Calgary and Crime
Not in any way. I love the city of Calgary and very nearly chose it as our final destination. Just thought Beaverquest would feel at home with the current "crime Spree"!?!
