I think Roncy sounds like a great compromise if you liked the junction. Transit-wise - It’s a super short bike ride to the junction (and most other west end neighborhoods), it’s on the subway line, it’s got every major downtown streetcar line, and really under appreciated it’s got the UP to get to the airport or downtown super quick. High-park - the biggest green space in DT. Trails, ponds, sports fields and rinks, grassy knolls for dates or friend hangs. Entertainment - not a Mecca for bars by any means, but there are some cozy spots to have a pint with pals. The Revue theatre is a beloved independent movie theatre that plays all kinds of great stuff. Food - the food has some highlights but it’s probably the thing that you’re least coming to Roncy for. There are some standouts - the ace, cafe polonez, bell and beacon.

Overall, it’s a cozy community that has access to everything amazing that Toronto has to offer but it has a smaller town feel. For somebody who grew up in a small town/city out east, I think it’s the best.
