How Warman scores

Dropping−18

Warman sits at City Score rank #212 with a standing of 48%, from 5 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 18 places versus 2022 (#194 → #212).

Latest owned placements: indoor radon rank #44 of 327 at 152 Bq/m³ survey mean. Full tables and method notes live on each study edition; atlas readings for the same slug open from the topic buttons.

On the latest OpenStats pass, Warman carries a City Score standing of 48% (rank #212 of 343) with 5 of 8 pillars observed. That sits 1 points above the Saskatchewan peer average across 16 ranked cities. Within Saskatchewan, Warman ranks #8 of 16 on City Score.

The strongest signal in the current chart is seismic hazard (standing 94%, rank #322 of 343, raw score 0.017). The weakest observed pillar is drinking-water hardness (standing 6%, rank #22 of 343).

Drinking-water hardness on the water atlas reads 269 mg/L as CaCO₃ for Warman. Compare that figure to the hardness pillar on the chart and to the national hardness guide on the hub.

Warman in brief

Warman is part of the Saskatchewan civic atlas on OpenStats.

Rail service turned a siding into a main street with grain elevators and hotels. Ask three locals which decade mattered most and you will get three different answers, all delivered with a grin.

Agriculture, forestry, tourism, and public-sector jobs still mix on the local tax roll the way many Saskatchewan towns do. On OpenStats City Score, Warman ranks 177 of 343. Municipal recreation, parks, trails, and utility pages remain the best live guide to how Warman explains itself today.

Permits, mill rates, broadband, radon, hazards, and water quality may show measured values, regional estimates, or empty states until a verified source is linked. That is the same honest pattern OpenStats uses for smaller places already in the corpus, and it keeps Warman comparable on the hometown board without inventing numbers. Seasonal recreation programming, winter maintenance, and summer festival calendars still fill the municipal news feed most years. Library branches, arena ice, and aquatics schedules are the practical anchors families check before planning a weekend in Warman.

Rankings for Warman

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.

Safety · OpenStats

Crime severity not placed

Statistics Canada does not publish a police-service Crime Severity Index that OpenStats can match to Warman without copying a province, CMA, or another city. The safety pillar scores at median standing (50%) on City Score, the same rule used for other missing pillars.

Connectivity · OpenStats

OpenStats Broadband Download Speeds

OpenStats

Cities ranked by household-weighted maximum advertised download (Mbps) from ISED National Broadband Data hex ISP rows, with hex-to-city assignment by population-weighted gravity. The headline 2025 score is the dwelling-weighted mean of per-hex technology ceilings (fibre and cable at 1 Gbps, DSL lower). Household-weighted 50/10 availability (%) is stored on atlas rows as avail_5010_pct. Earlier panel years backcast along a national speed curve with city-specific fiber and availability paths.

OpenStats City Score

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). Crime severity uses StatCan police-service CSI only (Tables 35-10-0026-01 and 35-10-0063-01); cities without a police-service match take median standing on the safety pillar. Growth uses StatCan CSD estimates; construction uses verified municipal building-permit value per resident (population field on each city record, 2021 Census vintage); 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.
