As kids, we could bike over from Glen Falls to swim at the beach in Drury Cove. A few short years ago, I wanted to have a look, but was blocked out by industrial operations, maybe the quarry you mention. Now things are looking up - but can ordinary folk still swim at the beach?
Nice one! SJ has some cool character neighborhoods tucked away. Ragged Point, Martinon and Morna Heights are three others to add to your list. Lorneville too, but I think I mentioned that one before.
Ragged Point used to be all small cottages back when waterfront had little value. My grandmother's cottage still right at the curve of the road at the bay. It sits behind another house and has a red roof
Your main pic on this video. Red house with stone entry on Fox Point Dr for sale for a while but I think sold now and for the street it was on the price was great
Very nice area and high above the river during flood periods. Yearly taxes are going to be high but i guess if you can afford a 1 million dollar home that won't be an issue.
Hi Chris. I think everything is relative. If that 1 million dollar home here is 2-4 million dollars less than the equivalent home somewhere else, then a few thousand dollars per year in extra property taxes seems a pretty good trade-off.
I’m from SJ thinking of moving back but the property taxes are absolutely ridiculous. City needs to get the big industry to pay some taxes instead of putting that on the residents. I just looked up a 2 bedroom condo in the area your in, $418,000 But $7228 in property taxes. No thanks that’s more than a 1.5 million home in Vancouver
We've been meaning to do a video on property taxes for some time now. I don't think it's quite as black and white as some people make it out to be, so maybe your comment will finally motivate us to focus on the subject. Thank you!
@@WeLoveSaintJohn once you get into Rothesay, Quispamsis, Hampton etc. way less property taxes. But less services. But that’s where we’ll most likely go. And out of the fog belt👍
@@WeLoveSaintJohn ill bet you seen the news about the storm in BC, Crazy and i bet your even happier you guys moved now, You both should run for city council have property taxes issue main platform and you'd win,
@@yeahwhatevermike Oh, I've seen the news. So just this year they have had a "heat dome" that killed hundreds of people, unprecedented wildfire smoke that wiped out an entire town, a "bomb cyclone" and now two "atmospheric rivers". We saw that writing on the wall in 2018, so yes, we are very happy to be here.
I'm not sure what you are asking. We discussed the prices of the ones we showed in the video. The average price on this street is around $650k and the average price throughout Saint John is around $275k. Very generally speaking.
Not in these areas because they are located well above flood levels, but there are definitely some areas that homes get flooded. We have driven by some of those areas in other videos and mentioned that several times.
