Folks in TO are selling their million dollar inflated realestate bubble homes and coming to the sun parlour of Canada …..here in affordable Essex County.
I like your idea of Lexington or Knoxville.Esp Knoxville/Gatlinburg area for the better WX.

Sun parlor: I been to that area once. Saw a lot of agriculture that seemed out place for that far north. It was neat though,windsor wrote: ↑Sun Dec 01, 2019 11:44 pmWNY being close to Canada isn't worth shit.....Niagara is just a tourist trap and the GTA greater Toronto area is just a overpopulated cess pool.![]()

I spent a night in London. Fairly vibrant, but it was Friday. It doesn’t seem that small to me, but it’s certainly not a Toronto or even Hamilton. Essex and Lambton are certainly more affordable than GTA.
Any plans on checking out more westerly cities?
Coincidentally, i ended up having a conversation with a co-worker yesterday who lived in TC and these topics came up.WZRC 1067 wrote: ↑Sun Dec 01, 2019 2:30 pmMichigan, East side of the state no way. I do like western michigan. I've always kinda dreamed about TC area but not sure about a living wage job , for someone who doesn't have a college degree.
Lexington has a lot going for it I agree. WNY is I admit hit or miss in aspects but I find the climate similar to TC, kind of. That's the main draw, its close to Canada and being near the lake, Cooler summers at times. However snow, yeah they get that.
A few years ago, Buffalo was ranked Americas most miserable city.
I love San Diego, but I could never live there. Its absolutely beautiful and fun. From lower income barrios to wealthy La Jolla, surfers to starched-shirt businessmen, there is something for everyone. Fun shops, diverse dining, perfect climate. Many hispanics and Asians, adding to the diversity, and its one of the safer big cities. Their "bad areas" arent like the empty, boarded slums in the rest of the country.WZRC 1067 wrote: ↑Sun Dec 08, 2019 6:36 pmIf money were no object at all and other things in my life were different, I'd live in San Diego in a heartbeat. I must admit I don't know a lot about W.Michigan but jobs tend to be lacking, from the data I've seen. I have some family that lives around Big Rapids but I have not seen them years.
Buffalo,in the city proper, no I would not live in. However, I find a few of the suburbs to be a major upgrade from the ones in The Toledo area. The area is far better then Cleveland with much less traffic issues, same for Detroit(not to mention the roads in MI, yikes!).
Lexington I did find to be fairly easy to get around there. Knoxville I've driven through but have only stopped for the night a couple times, Strawberry plains RD is a popular place to stop.
