Yes, but don't tell anyone what you know.

I have worked there, and boy played footy at Trent. Does that count? Is there a prize?

What happened to that map showing where everyone lives - I can't find the link - I am sure it had a couple of people in that area.

Ooooh I found it!

Are you wanting Peterborough specifically? There seem to be very few house rentals around here, the good ones go very quickly. And they can be a bit pricey! Try contacting a local real estate agent, they might have a bit more inside info for you on any up and coming properties.

Have you tried Padmapper? It utilises a lot of different websites to bring the information to one place - when I took a quick look (you need to change the search specifics to get them) there were a fair few houses, albeit not cheap.

yep. I live in Peterborough - well 10 minutes out of town but close enough.

Anything specific you want to know? It's got everyhting you need but obviously not Toronto.

It's a College town so house prices can be expensive but now is probably the time to look. PM me if you want me to look at anything specific.

I live in Ottawa now, but I lived in Peterborough for many years. Great little city.
