  • Selkirk is a good town and a good place to raise a family, I have traveled around the world and seen some real ghettos, I've seen places that wish they they were ghettos and some of them are right here in Canada. I have never felt unsafe in this town, and I have never heard from anyone who has.
  • Let me show you the dark side of this little city and see if you still feel the same. This is a nice place to live but it's far from crime free. Not trying to be a jerk just saying you should talk to a few more people before you say everyone here feels safe. It is simply not the case. Places wishing they were ghettos? Interesting.
