Hamilton is the third-largest metropolitan area in Ontario with more people choosing to call it home each year. Some come to advance their careers, their education, to raise their family or to retire. But, before you take the plunge and make Hamilton your home too, there are a few things you should know.
- You Will Be Entertained
Outside of the pandemic, Hamilton has a thriving entertainment scene. There are multiple concert venues, sports arenas, bars and clubs. The nightlife is vibrant and exciting, especially along King Street downtown. But even the neighbourhoods outside of the downtown core have their own entertainment venues with independent bars, restaurants, theatres, and more.
As the pandemic begins coming to a close (fingers crossed!) Hamilton’s entertainment scene is going to revive, and you don’t want to miss it.
- You Will Enjoy Nature
We are all ready to get out of our houses and spend more time in the Great Outdoors. Hamilton is one of the best places in Ontario to embrace nature and get some fresh air. In addition to the many community parks and sports fields, Hamilton also has access to some of Canada’s most beautiful sceneries. We have Spencer Gorge, Tiffany Falls, Borer’s Falls, Dundas Peak, and of course, the beaches and boardwalks along Lake Ontario. Whether you want to hike, bike, have a picnic or suntan, Hamilton has all the green space you need.
- You Will Be Well Fed
There is no doubt about it- you will be well fed in Hamilton. This city is bursting with culinary geniuses and top-tier establishments. From the tacos at The Mule to a steak at Edgewater Manor, the options are endless. We love seeing what TasteHamOnt posts on Instagram when planning a lunch or dinner out. Plus, most dining establishments have switched to curbside pickup and delivery models so you don’t have to miss out while staying home!
- You Will Feel Safe
Hamilton takes safety seriously and prides itself on having extremely safe neighbourhoods and laws in place to maintain it. We have six hospitals, more than ten walk-in clinics, and hundreds of healthcare providers of different specialities. There are nearly 1000 police offers to protect our streets and according to McClean’s Safest Places to Live in Canada, Hamilton ranks well below the national average Crime Severity Index (CSI).
