Hamilton is a big place, home to over 740,000 people! You’ll often hear people refer to the city just split between “on the mountain” and “downtown” but it’s actually divided up into many more amazing neighbourhoods all with their own names and identity. With an influx of new people flocking to Hamilton, many of these neighbourhoods are changing and blossoming with new growth and culture. People often ask me “what are the best areas in Hamilton?”. That’s such a tricky question as this city has so much to offer and is changing fast! Hamilton is a big city with a small-town atmosphere and each unique neighbourhood lends a hand in creating this environment. Nature lovers love exploring the fantastic trails, picturesque landscapes, waterfalls, the bay, and Cootes paradise. Many people want to buy a home with easy access to the Bruce trail that winds itself through the Kirkendall, Durand, Ancaster, Westdale, and Dundas areas. If commuting to the Niagara area and the GTA are a priority, then having convenient access to the highways located in and around the city make the West Hamilton and Stoney Creek areas desirable. With so many restaurants, festivals, concerts, an entertainment scene that can’t be beaten and of course the Hamilton Tiger-Cats, Bulldogs, Forge FC, Hamilton Honey Badgers and Toronto Rock all playing here in the city there is something for everyone downtown. The Gibson, Stipley, St. Clair, Crown Point, Delta, Central, Corktown, Beasley, and Landsdale neighbourhoods all lend way to easy access to the downtown. If large historic homes are your pleasure, the Durand, Kirkendall, St. Clair, and Westdale areas will get you to that happy place. With a new waterfront revitalization project well underway, the North End is growing in popularity with it’s easy access to the Lake and beautiful views. Hamilton has so many amazing areas to explore and discover. Click the link for more information the varied areas of Hamilton.
