This quantification enhances the traditional geo-demographic description of neighbourhoods and reveals nonlinear relationships among geography, demography, environment, crime, climate, and consumer behavours.

Methodology

Data sources used for this product include Royal LePage’s quarterly Survey of Canadian Housing Price, Canadian Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC), Statistics Canada, Cleanlist, available statistics and trends from municipalities, transit agencies, and other sources, and Numeris RTS survey. Each metric in “Neighbourhood Scores” is a consolidation of multiple variables to increase its differentiating power. We designed the scores so that most machine learning and AI algorithms can use it directly.  We validated with third party survey data (Vividata and Numeris) and observed overwhelmingly high lifts in predictive models.
