lettie - Because Hamilton is a huge city in terms of area, 1,200 km2 and not so big in terms of population, 600,00. That is the the city and with the amalgamation of Stoney Creek, Ancaster, and the rest, the metropolitan area. Before the latest round of amalgamation Hamilton was not a very dense city and now it is even less so.

You mentioned Dortmund in your post. It is a comparable population to Hamilton but an area of only 280 km2. That area even includes a copious amount of greenspace making the city effectively more dense. The denser a city is the better transit works.
