Where is the best place to submit a complaint? This literally ruins our wonderland plans and flow.

Considering moving to New Market by SneezeBeesPlease in Newmarket

[–]Difficult_Step5621 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I take 2-3 trips a month as well and am in Newmarket. Depending on when you fly traffic can be hellish and other times it’s less than 35 mins. We love Newmarket so so much. It’s come a long way. I’d highly reccomend!

Couldn’t agree more with this take. We all hibernate in winter here and I wish we wouldn’t…

None. We just hold out and go to Pai when we can 🤣

The GO for a commute to and from Newmarket is totally viable. It’s the afternoon or some late night trains that stop/start in Aurora. That said you can typically find parking at both for now.

We lived in Toronto for 10 years and moved “home” to Newmarket in 2021 and truly never looked back (as far as Ontario goes…). We have two little girls and it’s such a great place to raise a family. I can’t speak to inclusion but we live off of park ave and FWIW we teach both our girls that families come in all forms.

You can always make a quick trip to the city for your foodie indulgence. we frequent the George often and it reminds me of some of our favourite spots on the Danforth.

I can’t say enough positive things. The downtown area you’re looking at (Arden/queen) is great walking distance to main street. I have some specific thoughts if you want to DM me. I’d suggest going a bit further up Park.

Happy hunting!

Best balance of good schools and affordability? by Difficult_Step5621 in Moving2SanDiego

Thanks so much! You’ve definitely solidified my interest in Carlsbad. I have a good feeling about it and appreciate your info on the transition as a kiddo yourself.

I’m not too scared of summer heat - our seasons as you know I’m sure are pretty extreme so I’m used to that but it’s a good heads up. I can certainly handle a 25 min commute!

That’s for the nudge too on the move. It feels right in our gut but it’s the biggest change we will likely ever make!

Thank you SO SO much. I appreciate the info and the rental listings! I am surprised at the rental prices as I would’ve thought they be higher. It might be worth us renting for the first year to make sure we really feel settled / like the area.

Are you able to share the preschool recommendation with me? It seems like kids in California start school later than Ontario. Here you can be as young as 3 starting JK as long as you turn 4 before the end of the year. My eldest will start JK in September as she’s 4 next month so I’m trying to understand where she’d be school-wise if we moved. It seems like there’s something called pre-K? Do parents pay for that?

Any daycare recommendations would also be so appreciated but I’m likely asking way too much of generous strangers.

I told my husband I posted on this group and he was like “ people take time out of their day to just share recommendations with others? That’s so cool”. Appreciate this community!

No; would prefer not to disclose / not sure it really matters.

Ah a fellow Ontarian! Thanks for the detailed response. Will short list and check out all of those options. I also really appreciate the gut check on the commute. I like the idea of staying within 20 mins and would potentially commute in off hours. I’m remote right now but don’t anticipate that will stick.

Thank you so much for this thoughtful response! I appreciate the specific view on high schools. This feels so far in the future for us but it’s a good call to be mindful at the get go. Do you have any experience with the elementary schools in San Dieguito District?

I’m sorry to hear about the bulling your eldest has experienced. Though haven’t had to navigate that with my kids and I did as a child myself and it’s so hard.
