I thought I'd made my view clear, suburbia is bad for children because it ties them to their parents for transport to everything, the city's better for them. Once they grow up and leave, if the parents want to choose Oakville well, that seems odd, but good luck to them.

My home is not cheaply constructed, I back on to Bronte Provincial Park, so hardly without trees or scenery. My neighbours are varied in culture, shows you how much you know. Do you realise how bitter you sound? Horses for courses and all that.
It may not be your cup of tetley, but it's just dandy for others. Those others don't appreciate your continual scathing remarks of where they live and their homes.
If everywhere in the GTA is vile, why do you still live on it's outskirts??

Well, having lived for some years in Toronto (house in Beach, condo on the Esplanade, house in Leslieville), on a hobby farm north of Orangeville, in Mississauga (flat in Port Credit, house in Lorne Park) and in small town Ontario (Guelph) I have, at least, tried a variety of options. When I say the least appealing, to me, is the "nowhere in particular" suburbs, I do so knowing something of the subject.

They have lived in the Town for about 25 years, perhaps as long or longer than you, and in an old neighbourhood. They may well be your neighbours and know who you are but I'll leave that question unanswered. They, as I suspect with you, are not enthusiasts of all the surrounding development but as I say to them and to you, too bad, so sad.
