Leamington, Ontario
 
Does anybody here live in Leamington or the surrounding area. We are looking to relocate there at some point from Victoria, BC in the hopes of buying a house that wont cost me a kidney and all my hair.

You would leave Victoria, BC for Leamington, Ont? Is this an act of desperation or what?

Actually it's a nice town with a lot of tomatoes. H.J Heinz have a large plant there? Close to the US border and on a lake. I could live there. I spent an interesting few days there once, which time shall not be recorded in my memoirs.

The work that I do has a facility (Insectary) there, the only other place is here on the island. So that is the reason why I chose Leamington. House prices here in Victoria are very high, and dirt cheap in Leamington, hence the reason why I was pondering over Leamington.

Its not so odd maybe. Leamington was ranked #1 place to live in Canada in that Moneysense survey a few years ago, although its dropped significantly since then...
