Living in Grimsby

Grimsby has experienced significant growth over the past decade as the midpoint between Hamilton and St. Catharines, though growth is limited by the natural boundaries of Lake Ontario and the Niagara Escarpment. Some residents feel development is detrimental to the town as some orchards are used for residential development. Some notable attractions in Grimsby are the local skatepark, the Grimsby Museum, the Grimsby Public Library, the Grimsby Public Art Gallery, the West Niagara YMCA, the Danish Church, and the hockey arena (Peach King Centre).
