not only do 'some of us actually live down here' but downtown Hamilton has seen a growth rate of 12-14% in the past 10 years. Even with huge obstacles like one-way freeways, many people are realizing that Hamilton's urban core has much to offer and a great quality of life. the only other districts in Hamilton that see growth rates over 10% at census time are the ones where homes have been built on greenfields since the previous census. In the urbanized city, downtown has the fastest growth rate. That would increase exponentially with some basic changes to our street patterns, LRT and vibrant safe sidewalk life that would draw businesses back to our main streets instead of just runaway trucks.
