1: If you are lucky enough to live by the ocean you are lucky enough. The sea and the harbour are always changing. There is always a new ship or a whale or something.
2: Cheap Houses and properties. They are half of what they are in Ontario especially if you want to downscale. Low property taxes that can be fixed for seniors.
3: Weather. The weather in Louisbourg is consistantly better then weather in Southern Ontario
It is milder and has less snow in the winter and is cooler in summer. The weather in this part of Cape Breton is completly different then the rest of Cape Breton even different from Sydney. We have more fog and more wind but almost all major storms miss us even lighting storms are rare. No tornadoes No floods
4: Fresh Clean Air. Excellent fresh soft Water right from the Tap. Fresh seafood.
5: Terrific Infrastructure. Highspeed internet and cable right at the door. Garbarge collection, Snow ploughing clean roads and sidewalks always.
6: Many Organizations and Churches, Volunteer Work galore good community Services.
7: Major hospital 30 minutes away. Fast local Ambulance service (no traffic) Volunteer Fire Department. Airport is 30 minutes away.
8: Recreation: World Class golf course 1 kilometer down the road. Unlimited Hiking, Hunting and Fishing. Swimming on clean sandy beaches.
9: Great opportunities for Artists and Hobbyists. The tourist business is much under exploited
10: Friendly people, Everbody waves to everybody. Virtually zero crime rate.
Caveat:(only If you have an income)

This was my 3rd visit to Fortress Louisbourg over the last 15 years - each time has been outstanding. We had our 4 children (ages 19, 15, 10 and 7) with us and they all enjoyed the visit. We split into 2 groups with the teenagers going off on their own to explore. There is an excellent interpretive program for children - my younger boys loved this. Lots of dressing up and hands-on activities. The activities are varied and the costumed interpreters really well-informed and engaging. This children's program kept us occupied all day.
