- Toronto residents and civic-data researchers
- Worth noticing
- It labels itself unofficial and volunteer-run; the site says every number links to its City source.
Field notes
The navigation separates geographic views from topic links, and the page offers a “How current each source is” link for checking freshness. Researchers can also find spreadsheets, a ward-by-month view, and guidance on how to cite the material. The homepage identifies the project as unofficial and notes that its data is licensed under Toronto’s Open Government Licence.
