haha, this is kinda true.

I got friends, family that live right from Ajax --> Grimsby and I can't think of one place that I can think of would be worth moving back for.


Honestly though, if anything, Oakville or Burlington would probably be the best when you think of low crime, cost of living and family

I'm done with Toronto though. The cost to live there vs the return of what you get by living there isn't worth it

Really, it's only certain parts of Scarborough that's fukked up. Lower west side basically. Are they tearing down the community housing near Woburn? I saw a billboard advertising new condos being built in the area.

Only a matter of time most Ontario housing will be torn down

Most of these hoods are on prime real estate, near highways near major intersections

LOL I was joking and fukking around but 40k?? c'mon now it ain't Detroit.....even though that shyt city is certainly on its way.

I'm done with Southern Ontario though fukk it its going to hell. If it isn't the crime its the fact that housing prices and taxes are going out of control.

Ottawa is a cool city.....if you got a family and shyt. But that place is getting expensive too.

Shyt I know here in Montreal the taxes and shyt are crazy but at least the housing is a lot cheaper. Even the cost of living is fairly similar to living in Ontario.

Not all of those areas are that bad though. Especially Malvern/Kennedy and Ellesmere. Now Kingston Road (around Scarborough Village) and Bay Mills...those places are complete garbage. People openly dealing and the housing units and apts that Toronto Community Housing own there are in horrible condition.

difference is those houses would be like a mill plus if they were in toronto, you cant even get a condo parking spot in most places in the city for 70k

you can get a house or even a condo in hamilton for that price

no money to fix, just a matter of time before the apt buildings and old ass townhouses built in the 60s are torn down.
