stuckincincy Posted January 20, 2005 Posted January 20, 2005 ....anyone been there? Any feedback? 212353[/snapback] I don't know now, but London was big in manufacturing. Last I heard, the city wants to put a surcharge on new industrial developement, so I suppose jobs will be chased away. The tobacco business is not doing well - Imperial Tobacco for one is buying more overseas product.
bill in Livonia Posted January 20, 2005 Posted January 20, 2005 I visited a factory there once and passed through a number of times. It is a nice appearing town, most Ontario towns are. I worked with an engineer from there. He seemed proud of his hometown. I suspect you will notice a difference in attitude from what prevails in Western Canada. Good Luck
shadowdog69 Posted January 20, 2005 Posted January 20, 2005 Hey, I live in Guelph as I attend the University there. It's only about a half hour drive away. I've been to London on several occasions and believe me, it's one of the nicest cities i've ever been too. It's a very clean city with nice parks and a great place to raise a family. On a side note, if u like junior hockey then your going to the right place. London is ripping up the OHL. It also really is close to Buffalo, maybe a two hour drive.

Terry Tate Posted January 20, 2005 Posted January 20, 2005 ....anyone been there? Any feedback? 212353[/snapback] I passed through London on a hitchhiking trip a couple decades or so ago. Nice mainstreet/downtown surrounded by pretty countryside. You could do worse.
SF Bills Fan Posted January 20, 2005 Posted January 20, 2005 I found some photos here: http://www.emporis.com/en/il/im/?id=285586 http://www.emporis.com/en/il/im/?id=288552 http://www.emporis.com/en/il/im/?id=288553 http://www.emporis.com/en/il/im/?id=286847 Looks like a nice medium sized city.
