What's life like in Toronto, Canada?

Pros - Big famous city, good transportation, very convienient areas, multi-cultural, many festivals & fun things to do, mainly sunny, hot in the summertime, etc.

PLUS... your health services (doctors, hospitals) and education is "free". (paid through the 15% tax)

Cons - traffic, gas prices, taxes, winter weather! (you'd have to shovel)

----------------------------

If you're going to move here, I suggest moving north of downtown (or the suburbs) because it's cleaner, newer, and has less traffic. Good luck! :)

Great environment, super super high taxes. Oil price is 30% higher than the average in USA. It's quite safe, but still... 36 murders last year (better than NY... 388 murders).

I would live there if I could. Big city with some small town charm.

It's wonderful but pricey. If the job pays well she's fine.

Toronto is the safest metropolitan city in North America and it's a very beautiful city to live in :)

It's great! Lots to do, interesting ethnic scenes, cultural centers, plenty of concerts and sporting events; and best of all Canadians everywhere from everywhere in the world, very cosmopolitan.

Self-Centered people live there. There's about 3 shootings a night, maybe a homicide every other night. Cops are afraid to go into many areas because of the crime.
Toronto now compared to ten-fifteen years sucks.

Myself personally. I'd never ever move to Toronto under any circumstances.

It blows. Everybody's selfish and only thinking about themselves here. I wouldn't even recommend it here to visit. Hell, I'm trying to get out...wanna trade houses?

If you are coming here, I'd recommend you living out in the northern suburbs; people are a lot nicer and smarter up there. This town called Newmarket is great and it's only an hour's drive from downtown Toronto. I used to work and go to school up at that area (while living in Scarborough) and I still call that my second home.

There are many many (recent) immigrants there from all over the world. Can be a good thing or a bad thing depending on how you look at it.
