Where the facts come from

Most listings start from public records. Owners then claim them and fill in the rest.

  • 10,382 City health inspections

    Food listings show the City of Ottawa's latest inspection result and its date, from the open data feed.

  • 110 neighbourhoods, as locals name them

    Boundaries follow the Ottawa Neighbourhood Study, so Westboro is Westboro and not “Ottawa West”.

  • Screened, then read by a person

    Every new listing is screened before it goes live, and someone here reads it after it does.

Open data from the City of Ottawa and the Government of Canada, and business data from OpenStreetMap contributors.
