What part of Montreal is the best place to live?

Kay so I’m going to montreal,canada in a few years but before I go what side of montreal is the best place to live like north,west,south,east also what places do you recommend going to for couples or just for fun?

Answer #1

Hey no problem. I love Montreal! I hope you will too. Though I must admit January might not be the best time to love Montreal (but you got to love the underground tunnels downtown!). I suggest a stop by at the top of Mont Royal Mountain. You get a nice view and if there’s a enough snow you can go sliding or skating. Get a free Montreal map at the metro station (just ask the guy in the box office) and then ask a local to explain to you where the different neighborhoods are and what they are like. And definitely pick up a free Mirror newspaper (most everywhere like in metro stations or on line) and check out what’s happening. Have fun!

Answer #2

In a few years? That should give you enough time to visit and learn more about where you want to live. You know it depends on lots of things: how much can you pay? are you studying or working? would you rather live in an English neighborhood, mostly French or ethnically mixed? My favorite place to live is the plateau but in the past years it’s been getting too trendy and too expensive. Most english students prefer the Mgill ghetto (quaint but expensive)or NDG area (dowtown, not so many trees). I think my best advice is go visit and see for yourself. Have a look at the local newspapers to see what’s for rent and for how much…that way you’ll be able to narrow it down.

Thanks so much I’m going to Canada for a bit in January to look around
