Burlington, Ontario. Canada. Is sort of safe, however not completely. It is getting worse in terms of safety. Rents are extremely expensive for anything, rooms, apartments or houses. There are no jobs and there isn't much to do in the evenings, pretty much everything closes by 10pm, especially during the week. Except a few Sports bars that stay open maybe till midnight. Life is getting more and more expensive and the government sucks. However, Burlington is a clean and small town, people are not too friendly, however, they will be polite. But canadians keep to themselves, but most are harmless and as I said polite.
