I keep telling people that I live between sketchy and sketchy. Half way between the downtown city bus terminal and the Donovan. NEVER leave anything outside, as it will disappear. (neighbours have lost bikes, outdoor BBQs ...) Even stealing my cigarette butt jar every now and then. If you have never lived in a smaller city, downtown, or close to downtown, is NOT for you. There is a lot of crime in this city. (drugs, money, prostitution ....) There was a recent shooting at my local pub a few Fridays back. (Overtime on Notre Dame. And this isn't even downtown!)
Hi! Yeah, theres always crime in every city. Petty crimes in Sudbury have been declining but a few larger crimes have happend although they are due to our proximity to Toronto.
Correct. Where we live (Van Horne area), we get visitors every couple of days, depending on the weather. They usually just sift through the recycling bin and steal cigarette butts.
Ive been here for 10 years and honestly i dont know why epople ever want to come here. Okay maybe if you work in the mines.. but other than that.. pft dont. If you do, choose outskirts. Garson,lively, Chelmsford ect.
Very well explained! I was born here and back in the late 90’s hookerville was Elgin st just down from the arena. I couldn’t beleive when I moved back here in 2020 that Kathleen st between Melvin and Frood is the worst part! Hookers and drug addicts out in the open galore! I lived on Eva st up on the hill on the other side of the bridge and it was quiet back then. Soo sad. It is a very nice looking area just too bad it’s full of drug usage and prostitution and needle dispensable bins. Your def right about the e cheap rent too. I was just looking at a 4 bedroom house on Kijiji for 1800$!!
Listen, you dont want to live in the city. It's gross and in the past five years, has been littered with immigrants from the africa region, and they're not just here for school since school is out and they are still here. Compound that with the crazy amount of hard drug users specifically by the bus stop area. The desirable places are the suburbs around the city. The further away, the better.
I lived and worked in the Donovan and Flour Mill years ago and it was rough but not as terrible as portrayed. Most of the crime, drugs, and homeless have been pushed out of the downtown by aggressive policies of the City of Sudbury. Closing shelters, increasing policing, and not supporting vulnerable people. They have moved out of the downtown and into residential areas. Even in New Sudbury where I now live crime and drugs are getting out of hand. It's Sudbury's own fault for taking a hard line on crime and social issues. Focused on "Making Downtown Great Again", trying to build casinos and convention centers. When the city infrastructure crumbles and its most vulnerable citizens are left behind. Sudbury could be a great city to live in if city hall would make the all people of the city their priority.
Hi!! Looking forward to having you in Sudbury. Gatchell is what I call a B area. Its mixed. Lots of nice homes but also mixed in with some low income rentals. All in all safe place! I lived there for many years.
Chain down your belongings or they grow legs and walk away. And don’t bother calling GSP they‘lol tell you they can’t do anything! Our quad got stolen by a angry will monger/family member. She stole the ownership and transferred it to her name and the cops let her take it! No investigation. Yup 👍🏻 go sudbury!
I am heading to sudbury in December as a international student. Will I get part time job in winter? Would you please tell me the living cost near laurentian University.
I lived on Antwerp 5-6 houses from Kathleen for 6yrs, it wasn't that bad, live in Winnipeg now, the Donovan does not hold a candle to Weston,North End or West End Winnipeg when it comes crime,drugs, prostitution, burglary etc
I’m moving to Sudbury in a few months to start a graduate certificate course at Cambrian. Any ideas where to rent something suitable for an international student?
@@TristanRitchie Yes, New Sudbury is in the flats just north of downtown. The subdivision was developed in the 50's. Nice shopping area, good housing, good schools, and civic arenas.
I've lived in every province in Canada sudbury is by far not the worst City for crime and drugs or Prostitutes I live in the donovand It's supposedly the worst area in Sudbury. It's actually pretty d*** good I've seen wayworse in much smaller cities
I'm in Toronto, doing my remote job. I'm not a great fan of city life. Will moving to sudbury will be fruitful? I have 4 kids who are less than 10 year old. Which place close to good school and friendly neighborhood would be best for me to move with my family in sudbury.? .
Hi Jansi! I am currently working on a video that talks about the best places to raise a family. The southend is the the most expensive but "Safest" most popular family neighborhood. Right behind it, you have New Sudbury, which encompasses a large geographical area. Then minnow lake and then west end. GIve me a shout when you move here and me and my team can help you out!
I was born and grew up in Sudbury but left in 1991. Even back n my day the Donovan was a rough area but there were no prostitutes on Kathleen St. I never knew it has gotten worse
No you didn’t exaggerate.. Sudbury has become a dive.. specially after the bigger fails mayor. Now it’s no better. Spend spend spend. Sudbury has yet to recover. It’s two thumbs down for me. 👎🏻👎🏻
@@TristanRitchiehello, I got my workpermit and even if I have my security licence, am open for general labourer for a start, and 1 bedroom house close to bus station, please advise
@@TristanRitchie that’s because I am 48 years old.. born and raised.. I have not seen growth in this town! High TAXATION High corruption High clown council High criminal activity High theft High drug and drunk drivers getting caught daily. High disfunction at TDS High abandoned building. High Dept High road deterioration Construction is milked from TDS COW 🐮 (buddy system) High city official corruption. High buddy tax breaks! Just to name a few problems here. Now you wanna promote this place!? Good luck try telling the truth. Must have lotsa money to live here. Everything is expensive.. they all think we work at the mines.
@@edwinndungu609 Awesome! For jobs you can reach out to WORKFORCE, and they have many general laborour jobs that are good paying. Also, for appartments I am working on something to help immigrants move into Sudbury and Canada! I could possibly help with a 1 bedroom depending when you get here!

So what like Kathleen? 😂
Ive been here for 10 years and honestly i dont know why epople ever want to come here. Okay maybe if you work in the mines.. but other than that.. pft dont. If you do, choose outskirts. Garson,lively, Chelmsford ect.
chelmsford isn't even good now.
You didn’t talk about the Flour Mill 😂 just the Donovan. Flour Mill I find is worst than the Donovan. The Balmoral is the worst building in Sudbury.
I group them both in the same category!

Thank you!! That was exactly the point I was trying to get accross. Its not as bad as people think.
The downtown area has become a complete disaster over the past 30 years. I'd avoid it like the plague.
It's not quite that bad! Lots of great cafe's and restaurants! But there are a few negatives!
Downtown declined with the end of the 80s
Thanks for the info! I’m relocating to Sudbury with my family. What is the Gatchell neighborhood like? Is it safe for a young family ?
Hi!! Looking forward to having you in Sudbury. Gatchell is what I call a B area. Its mixed. Lots of nice homes but also mixed in with some low income rentals. All in all safe place! I lived there for many years.
Reach out anytime if you need any advice! Follow me on ista, I have a lot of insight on Sudbury!
Very informative!! Thank you so much! Any ideas of Poplar Street please?

Yup 👍🏻 go sudbury!
Planning to move in sudbury. Is there more about lively sudbury? Any advice or vlog. Thanks a lot.
Lively is amazing. One of better places to buy a house with a lot of young families. I can make a video soon!
Lively is the name of a community just outside the city for those who may be wondering.
Thanks for this video!
Anytime! I have more informational ones coming out aswell!
Is the middle of mountain avenue a safe area? I'm looking at a place at 297 mountain avenue I'm from muskoka
Hi Angela! It is considered our flour mill, but its safe. Its an affordable neighborhood!
@@TristanRitchie thank you 😊
Hey did you get the place on mountain? I actually live close to there !
I am heading to sudbury in December as a international student. Will I get part time job in winter? Would you please tell me the living cost near laurentian University.
That's a very expensive area
How is val caron or flake or hanmer? We are thinking of moving to Sudbury with our 2 year old
Both good areas! A bit further out from town but not bad
Val Caron, Chelmsford, Hanmer are all predominately French Canadian and located in the flats north of Sudbury.
Hi tristan, which place is good for a starting couple. We planned to relocate soon.
Lots of good places!!
Hi,Tristan
How do you think about elm street west part
Hey!! Elm is not bad. I call it a B area In a range of A, B and C. I lived there for several years.
Yo man I live around in like 5 min out of Kathleen street there was some body who knoks on my door....
I grew up on Ramsey rd by bell park 😂 , left in 1979 and never went back lol in Alberta for 40 years .
Thats a great road! I also love Alberta, I go once a year!
Hi
What do you think is the best area for me to come as a student and live there on rent , preferably near Cambrian College barrydowne campus .
I lived on Antwerp 5-6 houses from Kathleen for 6yrs, it wasn't that bad, live in Winnipeg now, the Donovan does not hold a candle to Weston,North End or West End Winnipeg when it comes crime,drugs, prostitution, burglary etc
Really not as bad as people think haha
What about 71 Davison street? Is it a safe neighborhood? I found an apartment at this neighborhood, I realized that is close to Donovan
Its actually a pretty good area!!
I’m moving to Sudbury in a few months to start a graduate certificate course at Cambrian. Any ideas where to rent something suitable for an international student?
Hey!! Amazing, New Sudbury would be ideal. I have other videos on good neighborhoods!
@@TristanRitchie thanks Tristan . Please do you have any links to rentable property there? Preferably furnished?
@@tochyeke3186 Send me an email!! We can chat about it there.
I am considering Cambrian College for international studies? is it worth it?
@@saidkolapo1425 Hey! It is. Many students move here and end up staying here once they get a job!!
How would you characterise Bloor St?
Bloor is considered uptown. Which is technically still the Donovan, but a good part. Are you investing in Sudbury or moving?
@@TristanRitchie I am looking for rentals for 3 months in Sudbury.
Please, which area is best for a student of Cambrian college with kids?
New Sudbury area is large with a lot of options. It's also a great neighborhood!
Hello is new Sudbury is safe to live in?
Yessir!!! Comparing to bigger cities it is!
@@TristanRitchie Yes, New Sudbury is in the flats just north of downtown. The subdivision was developed in the 50's. Nice shopping area, good housing, good schools, and civic arenas.

Every City has their worst area!
Is morin ave sudbury a good place
Its considered the donovan but its not that bad on that street
what about that neihborhood in rian hights
Better than Donocan and Flour Mill. Email me directly if you have any more questions.
How much is weed there? Quarter(6gms) is how much to be specific?
hahah depends on the strain! All prices are here! happylifepotshop.ca/shop-sudbury
Would you buy a Home in morin Avenue to raise a family
Morin is actually one of the better streets in the Donovan. Dead end street and not much traffic!
Message me or call me if you have any questions!
I live in the Donovan area and the best thing is ..we have 24*7 police protection 😁😁
Good point! I should have mentioned it!
how bad is kathleen to the donavin
It's not that that bad. Your life isnt at risk or anything!

@@corydemeray7594 I'll bet it was the same guy who keeps throwing ashfalt and slag at people off his balcony
thank you for your video. What is the Parkwood neighborhood like? Is it safe for a student or young family?
Parkwood is good! Its what I call a B area. A lot of nice well maintained homes with a few slum landlord buildings. All in all, good area.
@@TristanRitchie Thank you so much
Anytime!
Hey Ritchie is pine street ok for family? My budget is 1600 to 1700 to rent a 2 bedroom.can you help me out on this?
I am coming on this September and I am looking for a job opportunity place in Sudbury not to forget I am an international student.
Where can i find a place to rent as a student. I'll be joining cambrian college? Safe for women as well.
Hi! Cambrian is great, new Sudbury would be ideal. If not Minnow lake or Garson. All are safe options. Email me if you have any questions!
I'm from Toronto but here because it's cheaper ☹️
Yeahh! Sudbury is affordable, and honestly I love Sudbury. Check out some of my other vidoes on reasons why its amazing here!
You mean where the 90 year old houses start at $320,000? Yeah thats downtown Sudbury.....
Actually in the Donovan you can get a house for cheaper!!
Thank you for your video. My family is planning to move to Sudbury later this year. 😂
Awesome!! Let me know if you need anything
Thanks for saying it straight you want to destroy your neighborhood check out who lives in flour mill and Kathleen st!!
Its not bad that bad actually! I do mention it in the video!
