(with Lake Ontario subbing for the Elbe).  So indeed I am fortunate.The trade off naturally is being much further from the center of the "greater" city.  There are elections going on now... (both civic and provincial)... so there are a lot of statistics being rolled out currently to support the platforms.  One that came out yesterday is that people working in the center of Toronto have an AVERAGE one way commute of 82 minutes!  This the highest for any North American city.  There are a number of reasons for this too detailed to explain here.Living downtown is expensive.  If you no longer work there, a better quality of life can be had further away.  Like the Starnberger See to Munich I suppose.</blockquote>
