7 Top Best Towns To Live In Ontario

[@therealdoug1000]

Thanks for the shout out to Ancaster. It's our home and we love it! Glad you enjoyed visiting.

[@LifeInCanada]

Our pleasure! It's a very beautiful and full of character place.

[@jennyc123]

Collingwood is beautiful in the summer. Lots of snow ❄ in winter. I live a short drive from there. Beautiful place...I prefer Niagara on the Lake...gorgeous. There are so many cute & cozy towns in Ontario.Quebec is gorgeous simply gorgeous. Great video and info.

[@person-yu8cu]

Thank you... I was already considering relocating to Uxbridge or Port Perry, so it's good to hear they made it on this list.

[@muthoniwanyeki8757]

My mom lives in Niagara on the lake it’s very nice but very busy in summer and you have to drive to st Catherines for groceries no franchise are allowed 3:38

❤🎉 My hometown was St. Mary’s and close by was Stratford. We loved to go to Elora Gorge and St. Jacob’s. Very nice!!

[@LifeInCanada]

St. Mary’s is a very nice place.

[@sir_justinius]

It's generally pretty easy to dismiss everything east of Hamilton as just; "oh yeah, I've been to Niagara falls." Meanwhile there's St. Catherines, Welland, and even Port Colborne to experience. Even born and raised in Ontario, it's sometimes difficult even for me to comprehend just how many interesting points of civilization there are, dotting and connecting the Province.

I used to lived in Toronto for 20yrs. I loved Canada one of the best country in the World

[@LifeInCanada]

Yes. I agree. We love Canada!

[@minkorrh]

And then you realized how good it was when you left. Canada WAS the best country, now it's a dumping ground for the people that want to grape the taxpayer.

[@vintageseafinds7208]

Being close to all shopping areas is a plus!! :) Thank you for the wonderful video's!

[@Cal99ers]

Love it when I go to Ancaster, all the locals drive 30 kph, everywhere. Any town around the Kitchener area is better than most on this list. Cambridge is nice if you want to live in a higher populated area farther away from the crime that the Toronto to Hamilton area has. 5 of your choices are good if you want to put 50k on your car every year and small medical centers are suppose to be quicker than the large Hospitals

[@arunbalajirangesh5815]

Put the town name on display it would be help for newer.seenaries are very nice and greens to our eyes.This is helpful Thank you.

[@derrickdea]

Avoid Niagara on the lake. Yes it looks charming. It is not what it use to be. I lived there for 8 years. No sense of community too crowded with day tourist.

[@TheJlee28]

Lots of pollution too 😢😢😢

[@241JMJR]

You should have stipulated that these are all towns in Southern Ontario. Viewers looking for beautiful Ontario towns should know it’s a big province that doesn’t stop near the GTA.

[@wallytimmins356]

@241jojoromi. That's right. How about Northwestern Ontario? All up and down # 11 and 17 hi-ways. Lots of beautiful towns starting at the Manitoba border with Kenora and all the way to North Bay on both hi-ways. So, before you say top 7 to live in, you'd better look at the forgotten part of the province.

[@brianspencer4220]

Well done ! I'm in agreement about all your choices except #2 . There are other ones outside of the lake Ontario basin that are great too.. Thanks Brian 81

[@LifeInCanada]

Thanks Brian for your feedback. I know not everyone like town of Richmond Hill but in my opinion it is a very balanced place to live, except the housing cost )

[@soulsbourne]

@@LifeInCanada what's your opinion on Windsor? How would you compare it to these? I heard job opportunities are less there Also London because I see Hamilton has a lot of drug addicts i felt

[@minkorrh]

The entirety of Canada will have more drug addicts because the current government thinks that it's just OK to let them shoot up in the street as they don't want to 'offend' them. I grew up here from the age of 7 and if I had the $ I would be so far away from this place it's not funny.@@soulsbourne

Apparently people from India like coming here because we have good education and a quiet life . Lots of high paying jobs . Brampton and Mississauga are becoming too crowded and expensive and high crime . Elora Ontario is a real hidden Gem .

[@garymaclean6903]

I see you don’t travel far from Toronto. You’re missing a lot of Ontario out.

[@vintageseafinds7208]

Country Life is Great Also!

[@Peter-sz1sn]

You pronounce "live" and "leave", so I agree that Niagara Falls and Richmond Hill and most of those places are the best places to leave. Was in Niagara Falls few times. It is an ok place to visit, a nice place to retire if you have lots of money to buy a decent house there (which most of Canadians do not!), but in all other cases: avoid, avoid, avoid.

[@vintageseafinds7208]

Beautiful Waterfall!

In Hamilon alone are over 100 waterfalls! My wife and I visited a bunch of them when we were dating.

I grew up on Line 3 in NOTL.. left at 21 for my career in Western Canada (BC). Greedy developers are destroying this area and the houses are way out of reach for most people. Niagara Falls, St Catherine’s, St David’s and Queenston nearby. Factories are all gone and a lot of crime and homeless people in NF and St Catherine’s. Remember being a tourist is totally different than living in the area !

Niagara is Southern Ontario close to Buffalo . wheres Richmond hills? did you say ottridge? never heard of it? can't understand the 4th town? wheres Port perry ? I know Hamilton near Niagara on the way to Toronto and in the movie Youngblood!!

[@BasementEngineer]

Richmond Hill is just north of Toronto. Uxbridge is north-east of Toronto. Google maps is your friend.

[@GuitarMan22]

Richmond hill is a driving disaster. Move there if you like gridlock. A construction hell hole. This place is the last place in ontario i would move to.

[@LifeInCanada]

You probably mistake Richmond Hill Ontario with something else. Richmond Hill is a very nice place to live in Ontario.

[@user-IsSa]

Except for number 4:, Port Hope which is a polluted, small, old industrial town with much-contaminated lands, buildings and a strong, unpleasant smell from the factory at certain weekday times.

[@JERios-wv8lx]

Thank you for your practical info! What is the closest town to Niagara On The Lake on the United States side? I saw that you are from Ukraine, and i just met a girl from your country, and would like to have further communication with you. According to my research, Ukrainian immigration to Canada began in the 19th Century, and at present there's more than a million Ukrainian living in Canada. I suppose you know there are some non-profit Ukrainian organizations that assist newcommers from Ukraine. Do you know one or or more of them?

[@LifeInCanada]

Youngstown, New York is right across from Niagara on the Lake. You are right, the Ukrainian immigration to Canada started a century ago )
