I am from Montreal and been living in Longueuil for a few years. Really getting priced out of MTL. I have to say I really enjoy my street in the old Longueuil , it’s peaceful but I absolutely hate the food scene. I’m not a snob about food but restaurants here have horrible service compared to Montreal. It’s the #1 thing I miss the most. Restaurants constantly do mistakes in my orders to a point where it’s mind boggling and constant… With that said, I do have to shoutout the good places I do love in the area. Shoutout to Pizza Metro, the best restaurant I’ve found here. The people working there are lovely and attentionate, the food is delicious and it’s hard to find a good pizza in the area (idk why it’s so hard!) I especially recommend their spaghetti, portions are big and tasty filling lots of leftovers. They also are really fast. It’s my number 1. There’s Grillades Torino with the BEST grilled chicken and Mon Ami for delicious korean food. Also recommend Tayio for sushi & more. Noobox for stir fry (you build it yourself and they are allergy friendly, great place but a bit pricey) and Blue Bar Desserts for desserts (the ladies are soooo nice and always add extras like candy or even donuts in my orders with smileys without me asking. Very sweet). I also love Chez LouLou Crème Glacée for ice cream, it’s the best tasting ice cream I’ve ever had.
What is the big difference in your opinion between living in Longueuil, Qc, Canada and living in Washington DC. What stands out the most? And what about the quality of life of both places? I really curious to know. Have a great day.
Thank you, and I might do one in the future for Brossard. Right now, I have 5 upcoming vidéos that are in the edit phase and that will arrive every 1-2 months. Have a great day!
In terms of industry and economy, Longueuil has a few aerospace companies, such as aircraft engine manufacturer Pratt&Whitney Canada(2 sites, Plant 1 at Le-vieux-Longueuil which is the HQ, Plant 5 at St-Hubert), Canadian Space Agency and landing gear maker Héroux-Devtek.
can you suggest some good cosmo culture places to Montreal or nearby to commit office to Drummondville? need vicinity of some good English public school too?
That is a really good question which will varry based on your budget, job location. There are a lot of options the more you are willing to commute long distance to work.
☆LONGUEUIL IS A RSCIST DUMP☆ If you're an immigrant coming into Canada or anyone for that matter and thinking of settling into Longueuil think again. The rent might be more affordable than Montréal but to get to know Montréal from this totally hard-core Quebecois filled hell hole is brutal. Yes as he explains the first thing that's a huge con is that you are so close to the magic of Montréal but getting there is hell no matter how you slice it. You can see the city just a small bridge's distance away, but it's almost like a cruel joke. The separate bus system is twice the price and not only do you have to pay for that to then use the Montréal transport system, well you have to pay for that too. Let's say you need to take the bus into the city for work, you still need a car to get there. There are large bus terminals that require either a lift or you have to leave your car in the parking lot. In the winter it's an absolute bitch. So no matter how you look at it transport is not simple or more affordable it's just as bad, actually in many ways far worse. If you rent the longer you stay out there the higher the rents will be when you finally decide that you've had enough. If you want to buy, that's a different story however it is NOT a pretty place to live. A huge portion of it js just old ugly 70s and 80s dirty apartment buildings and bungalows. There is a large homless population there, with a lot of single mothers, down and out elderly people and welfare cases. So to spend 570,000$ on an 80s bungalow with no curb appeal, there are other options. If you have the 1.1 million dollars for a more luxurious home, you might get more bang for your buck, but that goes 6 anywhere that far away from the island of montreal. The first pros were the first cons. The location sucks no matter how you look at it. There is absolutely nothing there. There is a bike path in any municipality, so big deal, a bike path, wow. No matter what is said in this video that has any kind positive swing to it is that it's in Montréal, that once again very difficult to get to, so it's just a hassle. Don't be fooled, weekend traffic is inevitable and just as bad no matter what bridge you take. I lived on the other side of the south shore in Ste. Catherine and it is by far cleaner and more attractive. At the same time, the bridge there comes with the same amount of traffic and the same bus hassle. There is absolutely nothing there, but *LE 10X30* (pronounced the ten thirty) in BROSSARD. Great shopping outlets, nightlife, cinima lots of eateries, it has EVERYTHING! (and the people are SEXY!) So back towards downtown on the other side known as "La Coupe Longueuil" meaning a "Redneck's Mullet". No matter how you deduce it there is absolutely no sense of community and and Longueuil is an absolute dump. Do not even bother. Plenty of adjacent burrows that are a far better place to live. I am a retired master sales realestate agent that has lived in and around Montréal for 50 years. I'm also familiar with the cottage life and downhill skiing anywhere from 45 minutes all way to 3 hours in a complete circle from Montreal. So believe me when I say that Longueuil is not even worth a look, use your time wisely and stay safe!

I live near Washington, DC. I lived in Boucherville back in the days, and went to school in Longueuil. I’ll be visiting soon!

Makes Longueuil even more appealing with great job opportunities
@@gablaflamme Absolutely. Longueuil is an integral part of the Montreal aerospace hub, one of the 3 in the world (Seattle and Toulouse)
