The results came from data collected by the Globe and Mail. They gathered information about 439 cities across the country, spanning a variety of categories including economy, housing, health care, education and climate. The municipality ranked 15th overall in terms of safety. Caledon was 29th in community and 92nd in safety. Caledon dropped to 179th in economy; 186th in transportation; 238th in climate; 246th in education; 247th in demographics and 273rd in amenities. The Globe's evaluation involved an analysis of 43 variables, which span 10 categories that we've identified as particularly crucial when an individual contemplates relocating to a new area. These categories are Economy, Housing, Demographics, Health Care, Safety, Education, Community, Amenities, Transportation and Climate. Economy assesses a city's financial health by examining its job market, income levels and tax, and overall economic stability. Housing evaluates the affordability of housing and the accessibility of housing options for seniors. Demographics focuses on a city's stability and sustainability in population growth, diversity and cultural richness.

Education assesses the educational qualifications of the community as well as the availability of schools, universities and other educational institutions in the area. Community prioritizes social engagement venues, community events, volunteer opportunities, and the sense of belonging and connectivity within the city. Amenities catalogues recreational facilities, entertainment options, shopping centres, parks and other leisure opportunities available to residents in the community.
