The cold, for sure, and maybe feeling isolated. I’m used to Toronto’s transit and endless restaurants. How do you get around, and is there enough to do?
Moving to Northern Ontario is a great choice if you’re looking for space, nature, and a slower pace. The biggest thing to know is how strong the sense of community is — people are welcoming and life feels less rushed. You’ll love the access to outdoor activities year-round. The cost of living is much lower than Toronto, but winters are longer and colder, so be ready for that. Check out Timmins, ON Local Businesses to get a feel for local services and shops.
