Windsor has a weird bubble around us from the lakes. You can see storms part around us when following them on radar. We get maybe 1 "good" snow storm a year and a few dustings. One thing to consider is that even thought we don't get brutally cold, it's a damp cold that feels terrible. Welcome! More on reddit.com

When I was a kid around here there was a time it probably late Nov early Dec where it would snow heavy, the plows would push it to a huge pile at a parking lot or end of street and said pile Would be there until March in some capacity - not any more ! More on reddit.com

London is vastly more annoying to drive around and get anywhere. It takes forever to drive places because you have to take surface streets almost everywhere. More on reddit.com

I have lived in both places. Halifax Pros: biggest city east of Montreal so is really the hub of Atlantic Canada. It’s a fun little city if you can live in Halifax proper (the HRM encompasses several communities). Better public transit than Windsor. Walkable boardwalk waterfront. Halifax Cons: terrible weather. Rainy Fall. Snowy winter. Windy all the time. Maybe two good weeks of sunny summer. You will need a rain suit, don’t even bother with umbrellas. People will tell you that Halifax has friendly people, but they can be very insular if you “come from away.” Very hard to find a family doc at the moment. Super white city - lack of diversity. Windsor Pros: Long summer, crisp and sunny Fall, mild Winters. Great food and many options for a city its size. Friendly people in person (don’t use the internet to judge this lol). Diverse city. I love Walkerville, South Walkerville, and Riverside as nice neighbourhoods to live. Festivals every weekend in the summer. Walkable/bikeable waterfront. Proximity to Detroit. Proximity to wineries and beaches in the county. Windsor Cons: A lot of people here have never lived anywhere else and like to talk badly about the city when they don’t realize what they have, not super cycling friendly, public transit is crappy. (Also, you will likely never see a snake here. Just don’t lie down on the forest floor and you will be fine.) More on reddit.com
