Planning a move to St. James -neighborhoods?

Hey folks, TIA! Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. It's not perfect, but the community is solid.

I've been living here for 4 years and I'd say I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now. The walkability is solid compared to other places I've lived. Overall It's not for everyone but it works for us..

Real talk - this place is not for everyone, and I think that's OK.

If you value public transit, you'll love it. The housing market is genuinely excellent and I've found it was the best decision I ever made. My neighborhood (Maple Ridge) is growing and I feel safe walking around at night.

But if you're coming from Chicago, be prepared for the culture shock. nightlife is completely different here. And Not a lot of cultural diversity.

My advice would be to visit for at least a week before committing. Rent first, don't buy. And explore multiple neighborhoods - they're all different.
