Method to determine the most dangerous Vancouver neighborhoods
In order to determine how undesirable a place is to live in, we simply need to consider the preferences of people and identify the places that have the fewest of those things. We used the following criteria in Saturday Night Science to determine the worst neighborhoods in Vancouver:
- High crime (Estimated)
- High unemployment (Less jobs)
- Low median income (Less pay)
- Low population density (No things to do)
- Low home values (No one’s willing to pay to live here)
Next, we evaluated and ranked each neighborhood in Vancouver, Washington based on these criteria, from the least favorable to the most favorable. Afterwards, we calculated the average ranking for each criterion and called it the “Worst Score.”
The neighborhood with the lowest “Worst Score” is considered the most dangerous neighborhood in Vancouver.
