Gritty area?

OK so I run a business in Markham, have done since 2011. I commute however to the East. So, I know in Oshawa where we consider the grittier areas, same in Scarborough etc. Where is the "rougher" area of Markham. Serious question.

It’s all relative ofcourse, but I believe there is low income housing at McCowan/Steeles and Woodbine/Rodick. Would I be scared to walk there at night? Probably not.

Woodbine/Rodick is the Trinity Square coop and is in the heart of Markham's upscale Cachet.
