MoneySense’s Best Places to Live 2011 rates all 180 Canadians cities with a population of 10,000 or more in a variety of categories to determine which urban areas offer advantageous settings to live, work and play. We base our research on cities and towns with populations over 10,000 people and rate each city in the following categories: weather, affordable housing, household income, discretionary income, new cars on the road, job prospects, population growth, health care access, low crime and the ability to walk or bike to work.


Being the best in one category does not improve a city’s chances — a city has to score well in all categories to come out on top. Where did your city place? Check out our top 25 cities, which are located from coast to coast and in the far north as well, and let us know what you think by commenting below.
