1009.0. "Looking for a nice area outside Kanata" by GVA05::ATKINSON (Just the facts kid) Thu Sep 12 1996 15:49

    I will be working in Kanata and we are looking for some info on a good
    area to reside in. We are looking for a village/town atmosphere. I am
    willing to drive up to 30 minutes to get to Kanata. We want to stay on
    the west/south side of Kanata. We have heard that Carleton Place is 
    very nice. Any suggestions on nice places to call home?
    
    thanks,
    Alan Atkinson

    suggestions to check out:
       - Arnprior is about 1/2 hour. It has great facilities (arena's,
         parks, swimming pools, BARS etc.) It has a diversified business
         environment, from high-tech to saw-mills, 2 rivers running through
         it, the might Ottawa included. I love Arnprior but I don't live
         there (yet), worth checking out ihmo
    
       - Almonte is very near to Carleton Place, check it out on the same
         trip. It is not as big as CP but I keep hearing good things about
         it.
    
       - I personally find the (asking) house prices in CP to be a little
         on the high side, IMHO
    
       - Quebec is within 1/2 hour away from Kanata but only if you can
         fly across rivers.
    
    there are others worth checking out. Good luck,

    Check out Richmond. Stay away from Borehaven.
1009.4Stittsville: Close, but town-ishKANATA::ZUTRAUENalways lookin' to learnThu Sep 12 1996 20:436
    I can already here the hecklers....but Stittsville is as close as you
    can get to Kanata (10 min from plant), but still has a nice small-town
    atmosphere. I find it a real contrast to Kanata.
    
    Cheers!
    Pete
