There's an increasing numbers of crimes in Markham lately. Some outsiders from Brampton and other parts of GTA are making Markham unsafe. Recently there's been cases of outsiders carjacking in Markham. The city needs to step up the security.

Overall Markham is a safe city. But be aware of outsiders from other parts of Ontario who invade Markham and commit crime here.

When you let a city just be white and east Asian people, you will create a city with virtually no crime. That is Markham and that is why I am happy to live here.
