Vibrant Community and Lifestyle

Kingston is a very walkable city that boasts dozens of museums and historical sights, unique shopping and dining experiences, and plenty of hidden gems tucked throughout the city.

However, there are some disadvantages to Kingston. As a city near the Greater Toronto Area, there are some factors to consider for your next move.

Cons of Moving to Kingston

Weather 

Kingston experiences typical Canadian weather, including cold winters with snowfall and relatively warm summers. The climate may not be suitable for everyone, particularly those who prefer milder temperatures. Of course, if you’re coming from Ottawa, the southern Ontario winters are something you’ll already be used to!

Rising Cost of Living

Like many other cities in Ontario, Kingston has seen a gradual increase in the cost of living. Housing prices, in particular, have been on the rise, which may pose a challenge for individuals or families on a tight budget.

Transportation Limitations

While Kingston has a public transit system, it may not be as extensive or convenient as larger urban centers. Dependence on personal vehicles is common, and traffic congestion can be an issue during peak hours.
