A - that wasn't even Jane and Finch. He was about 5 km south of it. B - Jane and Wilson which is the area he is in, has a sizable lower income population and it can get sketchy in areas. But no where near as notorious as Jane and Finch.
Toronto is know for it's traffic. Let me correct you; Toronto is known for its construction, that causes its infamous traffic. We are constantly building, ripping up roads, re-zoning and re-designsting areas, add in road closers for summer street festival, marathons, etc, and it can get pretty nuts. I use to work downtown and my early morning drive in would take me 25mins. But the rush time home was easily 45mins.
I have watched every single minute of your Canada videos I am glued to the screen watching this all. Just like you said it's like looking at the future. These videos are more fascinating than any movie could be. I have to go see Canada myself one day. These videos are very educational.
Why did you get off the 401 in one of the worst areas of the city? You should have gone down to the Gardiner Expressway. The view of the skyline driving in is amazing. Or if you did want to come from the north, Avenue Road is a much nicer drive.
I love your Toronto comments while driving. I know everywhere you were driving around. Btw, in Toronto, the worse area is middle-class in the States. FYI, no detached home in Toronto is valued at under a Million.
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS There's a pretty big housing crisis in Canada, particularly the major cities of Toronto and Vancouver where it's insanely expensive, the rest of Canada for the most part is afforable still.
Thanks for posting your recent vacation videos, we will be doing a similar trip to Canada this year. I watch these videos as a preview of what to expect.
You can't really equate Canadian neighbourhoods with American ones; especially "the projects" -- while there is sort of this concept here to create affordable places to live for lower income people, it's not like in America at all (I've seen those).
2 things. That's not traffic. 3/4 of your vid would have been the first 3 min of your post. You certainly started at the bottom. Toronto is so much better than Jane and Finch.
6:15 - you are not at Jane & Finch. That area is much farther north of where you are. But why would you choose to start in the Jane Street area at all?
Next time you're in Toronto and looking for somewhere that resembles "the hood" physically, I would check out Weston Rd (south of St. Phillips Rd)... it's a mostly low-income area with several boarded up buildings and old homes. Culture-wise, you should check out the strip of Eglinton Ave between Keele St and Allen Rd (also known as Little Jamaica).
Jane and Finch isn’t known as a great area. Historically high crime rates. As with anywhere always more good people than bad. Easy on the Timmies (Tim Hortons) bashing! Thems fightin words! Lol
If you want to see some nice areas of Toronto, visit the Bridle path, Rosedale, the shops at Don Mills, Yorkdale mall, Yorkville, Lawrence from Yonge to Leslie has lovely residential neighborhoods, Yonge and Eglinton neighborhood is a massive condo construction area but lots of great shops and restaurants.
@@ahmedzakikhan7639 yeah specifically talking about the urban areas, suburbs are a different thing altogether. You need to walk the streets in the areas downtown to get a feel for the city. Hard to do from a car seat.
Your GPS will automatically switch to kilometers when you enter Canada, but you can manually adjust it back to miles. Same with weather apps. I switched all mine to fahrenheit.
If there’s a crossing guard at a major intersection, there is at least one public school between kindergarten - grade 8. High schoolers are on their own, unless it’d nearby to a school with younger grades.
love to see american in toronto and you guy are actually right in my nebough hood at keele and wilson yes these are timhortins coffee shop aswell you ill see theme all over ontario in every corner
You chose the wrong route into the city. The spectacular skyline on the lake is to the south. Should have taken the 427 south then east on the QEW which becomes the Gardiner Expressway as you approach the downtown.
If anyone is watching this video & driving out of the airport in Toronto do not take this route, lol. Just take the highway to the QEW & along the Gardiner into the downtown. Much cooler view entering the city. When in the city visit the neighbourhoods like Leslieville, Cabbagetown, Kensington, Annex, Roncesvalles exc. This route is driving alomg the awful 401 & then by Jane & Finch, Steeles, Lawrence, Weston....some very bland, suburban, car dependent routes. Avoid this route, lol.
“This is Jane and Finch, it’s just like a regular neighborhood in Toronto” 😂😂 bro could not be more wrong
A - that wasn't even Jane and Finch. He was about 5 km south of it.
B - Jane and Wilson which is the area he is in, has a sizable lower income population and it can get sketchy in areas. But no where near as notorious as Jane and Finch.
I think the dude was being sarcastic lol

Next time take the Gardner express all the way in. Got the lake on one side skyline on the other, way better view!
I just said the same thing. Jane Street? Why? It's the ugliest street in the entire city.
I have watched every single minute of your Canada videos

Jane and Finch is the last area of Toronto i would visit !
Great area to live.
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS not frm toronto but u dont kno what u talking about
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGSit's a dangerous area
@@jayflock7446I think he is being sarcastic tho 😂
What American tourists come into downtown Toronto from the north?

That’s expensive!!

So far coast maine and the far northern tip have been best highlights. Along 95 maine sucks

You Americans have to modernize to the metric system like the rest of the world

💯 facts

I love this place. i do my driving tour here..more power to your channel.
Toronto is definitely a walking city. Driving downtown is just an exercise in frustration.
Depends where in Toronto - the downtown Uptown and immediate areas surrounding the downtown core - yes. The suburbs are built for driving.

Hi everyone lovely beautiful video please more
Toronto has some nice neighborhoods…an interesting start
If you wanted to go to Jane and finch you could’ve taken the 400N to the finch ave exit then turn right and voila
love to see american in toronto and you guy are actually right in my nebough hood at keele and wilson yes these are timhortins coffee shop aswell you ill see theme all over ontario in every corner
you guys lit started off in the worst part of Canada haha jane LOL go to vaughan next time
5:17 What do you think of those rumble strips?
"It's like if American cities weren't plagued by violence" lol yeah that's pretty accurate
You chose the wrong route into the city. The spectacular skyline on the lake is to the south. Should have taken the 427 south then east on the QEW which becomes the Gardiner Expressway as you approach the downtown.
yes buy the way your driving though the downsview neboughhood i would say over the years it has grown to over 80 percient latinos in this aeria
❤❤❤❤
Nah. Not North of Buffalo and more. /
Hope you went to the underground mall…

Here’s a hint for making videos... if you’re yawning while making them.... you can bet we’re yawning watching them...
Yeah,... Toronto doesn’t have slums... not like they have in US cities... not even close.
1 Hour driving in Toronto and you need therapy.
