Ray Street does have some really cute houses - I really wanted to buy one of them and fix it up but my husband wants to stick to multi-unit Victorians. Bah.

Yes, I'm a girl, but I'm a civil engineer, so I'm used to hanging out with all the boys already.

I'm a girl that works with 17 men (fabricators and machinists), and that's at a firm that employs 19 people.

West Mountain, between Paradise and Horning and Linc and Stonechurch.

I wish I lived in Durand. There aren't many places in Hamilton I'd live right now. West Mount, Durand, HAAA Grounds area, and possibly Gage Park and Concession.

Stinson keeps on improving, a nice hood. I might've taken a picture of your house last week

I'd call that downtown... I generally refer to anything west of the 403/Chedoke Creek as 'West End'

me too.

Although if you ask Hamilton's media, anywhere where a crime occured is 'downtown' ...Barton and Kenilworth, Cannon and Ottawa etc....
Places that are booming and hot to hang out are 'west end' - Hess Village, Locke St etc....
I'm guessing that once James North becomes just as popular as Locke or Westdale that they'll start calling it 'the neighbourhood just across the water from Burlington'.

I call the International Village home and generally think of downtown as Ward 2 between Hunter and Barton, partly for topographical reasons. But it's an elastic definition -- for example, Mac frosh tend to consider anything east of the 403 as downtown.
