Some of our findings have been reported in the National Post (22.1.2010) under the headline "Jarvis-Sherbourne area is city’s roughest: study", by the Toronto Star (26.1.2010) in a story entitled "Entertainment District is assault central", and by the Metro newspaper (27.1.2010) as "Study maps hot spots for downtown violence". I hope that I could allay concerns expressed in The Ryersonian student newspaper (2.2.2010) about "Ryerson next to city's most violent area" ;-)
