I've Walked Every Calgary Neighborhood - my thoughts on Rosscarrock User Rating 1 rating By Anonymous ( Sep 06, 2025) Rosscarrock is among one of the sketchiest Calgary neighborhoods, period. The amount of violence, weapons, drug-use, and homelessness in this community is on a whole other level. Literally the first time I walked around this community I saw some dude with a machete.

The Calgary ...Read More Police department lists this as one of the most violence Calgary neighborhoods, with a violent crime rate over 3k/300k~. I have no clue why the crime rates listed on AreaVibes are so off from the accurate crime rates. Read Less
