Re: Hamilton???
No, you misread:
That's what they call a city - lots of buildings and parks and roads and people. Just like London and New York
I cottoned on immediately to your avoidance of my suggestion that you try Burlington downtown.
Trouble with you <snip> is that you really are nowhere near as clever as you think you are. You bring to mind an old chinese proverb. This is the part that applies to you:
'A man who knows not and knows not that he knows not is a fool, shun him'
Cheers

Re: Hamilton???
BC15 could you take a quick gander at rule 5 of the site rules, particularly the bit where it says "Anyone posting another members personal details without permission will have their posting privileges removed"
Thanks.

Re: Hamilton???
And yet you're within the sprawl, it's all concrete until Pickering or Ajax or whatever it's called when you get past Scarborough.

Re: Hamilton???
Yes, I know where Burlington is, well vaguely, it's not so much a place as a continuation of the concrete, it kind of blurs into Brampton.
Can you imagine working there as well as living there? Perhaps building the tract housing or selling something from a strip mall? Ye Gods, that's a thought to make one question the wisdom of fleeing the arriving Khymer Rouge.

Re: Hamilton???
I had plenty of excitement when I lived in London. I just didn't want to bring my kids up there. So I suppose to some degree that's true. Although not necessarily for the extra space, but it does come as a bonus.
I may be within the sprawl, but it doesn't feel that way. I'm a few minutes walk from the lake, I have the escarpment just down the road. I'm about 5 minutes drive from a provincial park. I can go skiing, rock climbing or mountain biking all within 30 minutes drive, or I can get the train downtown and go to the theater or opera. I think I have the best of both worlds here.

Re: Hamilton???
ALL OF YOUR OPINIONS ARE WRONG. Mine is the only one that is correct.
See how stupid that sounds? Cant you just agree to disagree

Re: Hamilton???
As a Torontonian I would stay away from Hamilton, it's always been a hole, my Aussie hubby calls it a shithole, he used to work there! But I have a few friends that live there, but it wasn't a place I would live in.
We just moved from Milton, absolutely loved it there!
As others have pointed out Burlington is a nice area, I would live there with no hesitation. I used to work there. I would also look at Stoney Creek and Waterdown and Dundas.
