#grimsby #besttown #2nd best

Grimsby is a town on Lake Ontario in the Niagara Region, Ontario, Canada. Grimsby is a part of the Hamilton Census Metropolitan Area.[2] It is named after the English fishing town of Grimsby in northeast Lincolnshire. The majority of residents reside in the area bounded by Lake Ontario and the Niagara Escarpment. The escarpment (colloquially known as 'the mountain') is home to a section of the Bruce Trail.[3]

Grimsby has experienced significant growth over the past decade as the midpoint between Hamilton and St. Catharines. Growth is limited by the natural boundaries of Lake Ontario and the Niagara Escarpment. Some residents feel development is detrimental to the town as orchards close to the town centre are used for residential development; however, most of the orchards in Grimsby were replaced by houses between the 1950s and 1980s and very few orchards remain.[4]

According to a late 2019 report, the town has 33 small parks, 17 larger and "many more green spaces, sport fields, parkettes, trails, and facilities".[5] Some notable attractions in Grimsby are the Grimsby Museum,[6] the Grimsby Public Library,[7] the Grimsby Public Art Gallery,[8] the West Niagara YMCA, the Danish Church, and the hockey arena (Peach King Centre), home of the Grimsby Peach Kings.

Aug. 8, 2019 — The Niagara town has been ranked 2nd best community in Canada. Grimsby and Burlington are among the top ten of Canada's Best Communities. The annual ranking by McLean lists Burlington number one followed by Grimsby in second place and Ottawa in 3rd. McLeans gathered data on 415 communities across the country.
