Biggest downside is it's kind of a sleepy city compared to some you mention on your list and it gets dang cold and stays cold pretty long.

It's kind of sleepy little town, but it's got the train and reminds me of Elmhurst on Roosevelt Ave under the 'El'. 

You could buy some REITs at a 6% tax-free (TFSA) income yield and go to sleep. I

I began tracking my sleep, I followed a strict diet and weigh program, and I even began to incorporate yoga into my weekly routine (something I never envisioned myself doing).

I was recently looking at buying some stuff and it looked like a sleepy residential block.

Yes, I get an adrenaline rush so bad that it makes it tough to sleep.  I

But when I started drilling deeper I found plenty of areas to look at.South Carolina, for the most part is very sleepy.

Back then Noe was a sleepy little neighborhood (not the über-yuppie-destination it is today ;).

Write down if you take a walk, and how long it takes.If you talk to your children, or help them with homework, or change their diaper (depending on your specific situation), write it down.Write down how long it took.Write down how long you’re commuting back and forth to and from work.Write down how long you were at work.Write down how long you were on lunch eating.If you do something OTHER than eating on your lunch break, write it down.Simple.You may feel weird doing it.That’s ok.Do this for 3 days.Make sure these days are pretty normal days for you.Nothing out of the ordinary; just normal days.At the end of the 3 days, or at the beginning of the 4th, look over your log.You now have a snapshot of your life.Figure out where you’re spending the most time.You’ll find sleep is at or near the top of the list.That’s ok.We all need sleep.You’ll find work, followed by your commute, is at or near the top of the list.That’s ok.We all need to work.You’ll find eating takes up a good portion of time as well.Here’s where it gets interesting.There are 168 hours in the week.If we take out 8 hours (high for some people, but I’ll be conservative) during the week for sleeping, we’ll subtract 56 hours.That leaves 112 hours.

I get the feeling that you are investing in a super quiet sleepy suburb similiar to other sleepy suburbs so it doesn't really stand out much.
