Crime rates are beginning to rise in certain areas of Ajax. Living further away from Pickering will prevent interactions with gang-related activity. Although the downtown areas may be unappealing, there are many beautiful conservation areas near most home clusters. The city’s location is also ideal for those interested in the suburban experience, but may have to commute to Toronto for work.
