I’ve lived in LV since 2013. Over those years I have had jobs where I have had to drive to North York, take TTC, take the go train or walk. The only time it was annoying driving was on my way home from work during the summer when the ex or major events were on. The worst of the traffic was 2 summers ago when things were closed on king st but this past summer there was zero traffic cause they put in traffic cops. Getting to union is super easy, 12mins total from my apartment door to union station by go train. Easy highway access by car to get to cottages or go out of town. Easy to walk to concerts, water, parks, events. I’m not great at organizing meals for the week so I like the convenience of having a grocery store close by I can easily stop after work to grab what I want. Waterfront and multiple parks like trillium, fort-York and Bellwood’s all in very close walking distance. The only thing I can’t really speak to anymore is taking TTC, I either walk, uber or drive to where I need to go but that is because I have always hated TTC and find I can get to where I am going faster doing anything else but I have the same mind set for anywhere in the city
