Burlington/Hamilton boarder here, It would be nice to know a few local guys.

I’m in west Hamilton, near McMaster. You must not be far from me.

That’s only 10 minutes from here depending on McMaster traffic

I am about as far north you can go and still be in Burlington

Nothing in the GTA or surrounding area in two hours drive is “nice area”

Its a tiny farming village and we even have a general store! that and for being 15 min from Milton and 15 min form Burlington proper , you think I could get a pizza delivered? but I'd pit it against place

(we used to have a gunpowder mill back in the day but, one day it left... Gore Powder Mill

East of the gta is complete shit. Don't anybody else from the city think of moving out here anymore, terrible idea, you wouldn't like it, please just stay there, and I'm running out of things to say to make you stay in the city......

Everyone in wife's family has moved east of the GTA... the one furthest west is near vivian rd and hwy 48... the furthest east is warkworth. I looked at many properties with springs and seasonal streams.... but west of the GTA has more appeal to me, I know more people with very good shops out that way, the Halton County radial railway is there... the tri-cities area...

 

[Dan Dubeau]

You'd like it better further west.

 

[TorontoBuilder]

You'd like it better further west.

just to be further from SIL if nothing else

It doesn’t look too bad 1 hour from Toronto at our house.

I think he meant further west of the GTA, not like in the actual west.

Can never be too safe.....

Can never be too safe.....

BTW the western side of the GTA is machine central... they're always coming up in the area

Are you in aldershot?

I wonder if we crossed paths a few years ago. I bought some angle plates from a guy with a home shop around waterdown rd and plains rd.

I'm just doing my part to keep the city dwellers from suffering the discomfort of country living.
