Top 5 Reasons Why You SHOULD MOVE to LONDON Ontario 

I love London...theres just too many people now. Back in the 80's and 90's, London was simple and beautiful...it feels like what made London so special is being attacked by urban spral or people taking advantage of it. It's sad.

I have a plan to go to London Ontario because I searched for it and found all the information in the video and I liked it very much - thanks for sharing

Very good video sir. Thank you for informations! I watch your video from Ottawa 😁👍

Many thanks to the author for informative videos, I watch with pleasure and learn English!

Thank you for the informative video

Grew up in London. Have lived away for many years but it's always on my mind and have periodically moved back there. At 53 I know the place as well as anyone else if not better. To be honest, yes, it definitely has its problems but I survived 15 years in Toronto and am now dying of boredom in Fredericton, NB. I may have a chance to move back to London and if the job works out, I'll take it and move home and hopefully never leave. To be able to spend my off time on the Thames Valley Parkway has always been my favourite pasttime.

Well crafted video

London is the best place to raise a family. It offers a combination of city and rural life. London was not that affected during the recession in the 80s because of the diversity of businesses from agricultural to manufacturing. We have top class college, a great university offering Medicine to MBA and a world-class hospital system. London's proximity, especially to the great lakes and an array of weekly festivals in London and around make every summer fun! In the wintertime there is a small ski slope and free skating rinks to enjoy otherwise hop to the efficient London Airport for direct flights to Cuba, Mexico and others. Come to London, real estate is still manageable. Cheers to London!!

Hi there! I have lived in London ont. My whole life! Love it here. Great schools, hospitals, shopping, grocery stores are abundant and everything is pretty easy to get to. 😃

Wow, what a beautiful city! A perfect place for a family

London Ontario certainly stepped up it’s game I think I’m moving bk💕🌸💕

I have lived here my whole life but when I was 6 months old I almost died in on of Hello houses in south London. Still living here and loving it it’s also very close to Canada’s WonderLand

On my yearly visits to Niagara Falls, I've always wanted to go visit London. Never have though because I hate taking time away from Niagara, lol. I'm in the Cleveland, Ohio area and London is only around 80 miles from me as the bird flies over Lake Erie. I remember as a kid, picking up an AM radio station from London, Ontario. At first I thought it was London, England, lol, until I realized there was a London just across the lake.

Try the small town of Strathroy Ont. It has everything and you don’t expect that from a small town.

I just do campus tour London western university ❤ nice and friendly town . Nice river and trail .

I‘m curious what the public transit and walkability situation is like in London

London is too bloody hot in the summer. I also heard that it has very stormy weather in the winter time...

Best city for new comers

Please do waterloo-kitchener next.

I just posted a comment on your video: Reasons NOT to live in London Ontario. So, now I am going to post this on why you SHOULD live in London Ontario. I see that you talk about the proximity to other cities. I AGREE wholeheartedly! the BEST reason to live in London is that it is close to Toronto, Detroit, Michigan and Buffalo, New York. You can get from one side of town to the other in 25 minutes. We have world-class hospitals. We are the "Forest City" so we have tons of parks. I can get to THREE of the Great Lakes in around an hour. Lake Huron is 1 hour. Lake Erie is 40 minutes. Lake Ontario is 1.25 hrs. I DID go to the Imaging Van Gogh exhibition at 100 Kellogg Lane. It was breathtaking to the point of bringing me to tears. I really wept at the beauty of it. I commented on your HATE LONDON video on why I hate living here. Crap. Now I am thinking it may not be such a bad place to live. When I started this comment it was to praise the location of London to other "Better Places"...Now, I may be thinking that it is not such a bad place to live. Crap Again! I didn't expect a whole Reality Reconfiguration today! It's my day-off. I just wanted to relax and watch fun youtube videos. THANKS for making me think! When I didn't want to! LOL

Funny to see this video in my recommended considering I just moved away from London a few weeks ago. It’s fine (as in there is stuff to do, and it looks nice (if you’re on the north, west or far east ends of town)), but the traffic is bad; there aren’t a lot of good jobs; and it’s expensive relative to the number of good jobs available. Downtown is also riddled with drug addicts, so that’s not really the place to be. You’d be better off moving to Windsor (actually cheaper), Waterloo (good jobs), or Toronto (good jobs) if you want to stay in Southwestern Ontario.

I moved from GTA to be in London, the White Oak area. Great city, everything is there and around. London has International airport to 401 hwy and train connections to GTA. Farmland all around the city and lake is close. The city is fast growing, 432k in population (a lots of a companies offering good paying jobs), now we need better inner city transportation solution, like KW or Calgary.

Born-and-bred in London.. the city has seen better days it's a sad State of affairs when we are shutdown nation wide for pandemic. Coming out of 2022 we have three thousand bonus homeless people started around 300 displaced beings at beginning of CO VID

I love London I've lived in this city my whole life and id never leave its my home. To be completely honest and i know this is a problem everywhere but in London its definitely getting really bad. The homeless population is getting completely out of control and nothing is being done to help this and as result crime both break and enter and violent crimes are also getting really bad and the London police service really couldn't possibly care less as they just seem to ignore everything and just wait for you to stop bugging them when you need them. In London seriously don't order anything online and have it delivered unless you are going to be waiting on your porch to receive the package because 100% it will get stolen by porch pirates and again it doesn't matter if you yourself catch the idiots and call the police or if you call them and ask them to do anything about it the London police service absolutely doesn't do anything to stop porch pirates not even when they have video or photos or multiple people saying that whatever person is the one who did it the police just don't do anything. Me personally im disabled and i don't drive and i was downtown by shoppers drug mart waiting for a bus with a family member and ny medical alert service dog and completely out of nowhere some crazy homeless idiot ran up behind me completely not provoked not at all I've never seen him but he knocked me out cold from behind knocking me down to the ground then im told my my family member that the idiot ran away like a complete coward thankfully the city had security cameras in this location and they seen the whole thing on camera after we called for help because i had to be taken to the hospital in an ambulance because of my head injury from him i still have memory problems from this happening. Anyways its not safe downtown not at all. Another time i was walking to meet up with my mother then we were going to go to one of the malls and by the Dollarama on Dundas downtown some other crazy person come again from behind and started to hit my disabled mother and knocked her down thankfully i was able to knock this idiot down and i did something i likely shouldn't have but this person just hurt my mother for no reason so i knocked him down and i kicked him in the ribs a few times and yelled a few things im not proud of how i handled that bug its my mom and i did what I had to do to protect her. Bottom line downtown London ontario Canada is not a safe place and just because the city put jn a fancy new brivk road on Dundas calling it Dundas place doesn't make it a safe place it just gives the criminals and homeless a nice new brick road to sleep on oh and can't forget that you look anywhere downtown on the sidewalk you will always find human poop and often see homeless or drug Addicks dropping his or her pants to either per or poop ive seen this happen more than a few times its disgusting. Bottom line yes London is my home i love it and will never leave but even on the streets with homes on them have a lot of problems with homeless and crime so channels like this need to be 100% honest and tell everything because again yes London is my home I love it but its extremely far from perfect and is absolutely dangerous in more than a few areas and definitely the downtown area. This is the real London Ontario Canada not the fake perfect London Ontario Canada that this channel is trying to make you believe it is. 🙂👍✌️

How about Puerto Vallarta MX any video on that city..

I currently live near Ottawa. I retire in 5 years and I am thinking that a rural area near London would be warmer and less expensive than Ottawa.

it use to be one of the cleanest Cities in Canada but sadly i think to many east indians that dont know what a garbage can is

How about public transportation?

Too expensive for what it is, but then again, so is everywhere in Canada.

No stay away you’ll be much happier in Kitchener

The chap from the not just bikes channel was from here wasn’t he? He said it was the most soulless place in North America!

Reason number 2 is literally “good location to leave London” I can get how that’s a pro for day trips, but it’s also telling of what’s lacking in London.

People are moving there because its the only city thats actually building thousands upon thousands of new homes. Jury is still out on whether they'll actually like it, I am going to say no if you came from the GTA, not even comparable but a good place to have kids and raise a family. My 2 cents, avoid London and pick one of the adjacent small towns instead.

I just came to comment that there are only a few reasons to live in London. Probably good for family’s and affordable but that’s it!

London needs highways

I moved 3 years ago , meth and homeless everywhere

London is a terrible place to live, honestly. Average wage 18 dollars an hour, average price of a home sneaking up to 750,000. Hmm.

If you want to live in a city where half the population lives in poverty, come to London. The manufacturing dried up long ago. If you want to live in a city where those who make a fair and decent wage (nurses, doctors, etc) whine incessantly about hard they work, come to London. News flash: we all work hard. If you want to live in a city without culture, come to London. If you want to live in a city where the homeless problem is huge come to London. Where there's so many homeless that its unsafe to go downtown, come to London. Where the homeless are so desperate that they'd knife you for your shoes...come to London.

This is funny, there is a channel that often post videos comparing London, Canada to Europe. And it’s not very flattering for fake London as he calls it. Or maybe this is a different London, Canada?

London is the shit hole of ontario. I was born there and lived 23 years there. Very humid summers horrible winters. A small city attempting to be a top 5 city in Canada

Because they don't know it's beyond corrupt. Eyes wide shut city

There is nothing in London after 6 it's a ghost town

Pro tip: enunciate.

You shouldn’t move here.

Its crappy city mostly except for a few areas such as North and West. All else is super bad. People are rude and racist. You wont feel welcomed .

stop moving to london ontario!!! It has too many people already

DONT MOVE HERE THERE'RE NO JOBS HERE

Renting is almost as bad as Toronto, a drug epidemic has destroyed the city center. Go to Kitchener.
