OpenStats City Score, ranking history, and local readings for Saint-Georges.
City Score #137 (2022) → #151 (2025)
Saint-Georges sits at City Score rank #151 with a standing of 40%, from 8 of 8 open-data pillars (tax, construction, connectivity, indoor air, water, seismic hazard, growth, safety). Missing pillars score at median standing so thin coverage cannot inflate the rank. Dropping 14 places versus 2022 (#137 → #151).
Latest owned placements: building permit value rank #102 of 172 (2025); indoor radon rank #47 of 117 at 120 Bq/m³ survey mean; residential mill rate rank #124 of 172 (9.12 mill rate).

Where Saint-Georges sits in published building-permit figures for July 2026.
Saint-Georges calls itself the Métropole de la Beauce without blinking, and Georgiens treat that as a work schedule more than a postcard line. City hall pushes nature à vivre on the homepage, then sends you straight into entrepreneur files: the École d'entrepreneurship de Beauce, the Chambre de commerce et d'industrie de Saint-Georges, and the Conseil économique de Beauce. Beauce Média covers the same corridor of towns, so regional news and municipal notices feel like one conversation rather than two separate desks.
Street talk still names concrete corners. When resurfacing hits, the communiqué points to pont David-Roy and 118e Rue, not abstract downtown. The Musée des lilas sits in the civic carousel like a lilac-season appointment you put on the family calendar. Ahead of the Jeux du Québec in 2027, sports hosting shows up beside ordinary 311 and CITAM alert habits, which is a very Beauce mix of ambition and practical messaging. Ma Vie, Ma Ville is the portrait-video title the city uses when it tries to explain itself to newcomers without a sales pitch.
What holds is Beauce pride with a practical edge. Georgiens collect Ordre du mérite georgien honours, watch Beauce Média for neighbouring towns, and measure summer by lilac museum visits and roadwork detours across pont David-Roy. Development partners and citizen alerts share the same municipal front page. Saint-Georges sells itself as the Beauce metro that still keeps entrepreneurship schools, chamber files, and lilac gardens on one menu, and expects Georgiens to know all three without a brochure.
Drawn from Ville de Saint-Georges, Beauce Média.
City Score from 2016–2025 across eight open-data pillars. Individual study placements are listed in the panels below.
Each study below is its own ranking. Where a study has more than one edition for this city, the chart shows standing across those years only.
Connectivity · OpenStats
OpenStats
Cities ranked by estimated best advertised download (Mbps). Anchored to the current ISED National Broadband Data vintage, then backcast along a national speed curve with city-specific fiber-arrival and 50/10 availability paths so relative ranks can change over the decade. Not a claim of audited historical hex maps for every year.
10 editions · 2016–2025
Construction · OpenStats
OpenStats
Cities ranked by calendar-year building permit value. Direct rows sum Statistics Canada Table 34-10-0292-01. Cities without a direct reading use population × provincial per-capita permit intensity (estimated), so every seed city has a year-varying construction signal.
10 editions · 2016–2025
Composite · OpenStats
OpenStats
Dimensional average of OpenStats open-data pillars for each panel year 2016–2025: tax, construction, connectivity, indoor air, water, seismic hazard, population growth, and crime severity. Each series is scored 0–1 within its edition; series in the same pillar are averaged, then all eight pillars are averaged with equal weight. Missing pillars score at median standing (0.5). Growth and CSI use StatCan annual tables; permits, mill rates, and broadband use live rows plus documented year-varying estimates where needed. Radon, water, and PGA may be survey/model vintages carried forward and are flagged when static for more than two years. External commercial livability lists are never inputs.
10 editions · 2016–2025
Safety · OpenStats
OpenStats
Communities ranked by Statistics Canada Crime Severity Index (Table 35-10-0026-01). Rank 1 is highest CSI (worse). Values are CMA where a metro match exists, otherwise provincial CSI. Hometown pages label the grain.
10 editions · 2016–2025
Water · OpenStats
OpenStats
Communities ranked by municipal drinking-water hardness (mg/L as CaCO₃). Hardness changes slowly; the atlas vintage is carried across panel years and flagged when static for more than two years.
10 editions · 2016–2025
Water · OpenStats
OpenStats
Communities ranked by reported lead (µg/L) on the OpenStats water atlas. Carried across panel years until annual municipal report panels are ingested.
10 editions · 2016–2025
Health · OpenStats
OpenStats
Communities ranked by Health Canada survey mean indoor radon (Bq/m³). Rank 1 is the highest mean. Decade panel years without a new survey carry the CMA survey vintage forward; they are not annual retests.
10 editions · 2016–2025
sports · OpenStats
OpenStats
Cities ranked by weighted count of documented local teams (pro, junior, university, high-school hubs). Rank 1 = deepest documented sports footprint among covered seed cities. Not a claim about on-field success. See sports methodology for weights and gaps.
Single edition · 2025
Only one published edition places Saint-Georges in this study so far. Open the edition for method notes and the full table.
Growth · OpenStats
OpenStats
Cities ranked by year-over-year population growth from Statistics Canada annual CSD estimates (Table 17-10-0155-01). Rank 1 is fastest growth. A few places without a clean CSD match use a provincial-path estimate anchored to seed population.
10 editions · 2016–2025
Property tax · OpenStats
OpenStats
Municipalities ranked by residential mill rate. Rank 1 is the highest rate. Published municipal years are used when available; gaps are interpolated or follow the provincial median path so the tax pillar moves year to year for every city.
10 editions · 2016–2025
Hazards · OpenStats
OpenStats
Communities ranked by NRCan peak ground acceleration (higher = stronger shaking hazard). Rank 1 is highest PGA. The seismic model is multi-year; values are carried across the City Score panel and flagged as static until NRCan publishes a new generation.
