Montreal Less Sleazy Areas

Like all big cities, Montreal has areas where its city vibe is less savory than in others and visitors are wise to stay away from them at night. For example, the Montreal Red Light district is anywhere in the heart of the city and some areas in the Ville Marie (MBK) district are not safe late at night.

Drug use and dealing has increased dramatically in the Shaughnessy Village (MBK) around Ste-Catherine between Atwater and Guy.

It's not such a dangerous area but if you can avoid it, do so, especially the Cabot Square.

Downtown Montreal (MBK) East of St-Laurent becomes fairly seedy and dangerous, especially near the Montreal Gay Village (MBK) and Papineau where there's plenty of drug use and prostitution. Try to avoid Montréal Nord (MBK), Parc Extension (MBK) and lower Côte des Neiges (MBK), especially around Victoria as they are not unfamiliar to gang violence.

Thank you for visiting Montreal Travel.
