Wahi’s most viewed listings for homes in Hamilton in 2023.

There’s more to Steeltown than its industrial heritage for which the Ontario city is known. This port city located between Lake Ontario and the Niagara Escarpment also happens to be the 5th largest city in the province and offers access to some of the best natural and cultural attractions in the Greater Toronto Hamilton Area.

In recent years, Hamilton — also home to McMaster University — has become a popular destination among newcomers moving to Canada because of its proximity to Toronto and comparatively lower cost of living.

Here’s a round-up of last year’s top-five most viewed listings for homes for sale in Hamilton.
