Ottawa has a mix of strengths and weaknesses. People who have spent time in the city often talk about the downtown area, where there are many things to do, but some have raised issues about homelessness and cleanliness. However, don’t let that stop you! On the positive side, Ottawa is known for being safe, especially for women and the LGBTQ+ community, creating a welcoming environment. The cost of living is quite low compared to other large cities, and internet service is good, with speeds from medium to high. Public transportation is improving, making it easier to visit important places like Parliament Hill and the Rideau Canal. Winters can be harsh, so dress warmly if you are visiting then! A local tip is to explore the different neighborhoods, which show Ottawa’s culture and history. If you want a friendly and diverse city with its own unique features, Ottawa is definitely worth a visit!
