Niagara Falls
Niagara Falls, Ontario:A thriving, affluent city of 80,000 people with casinos, hotels, high rise buildings and good nightlife. It surpasses its American neighbor,
Niagara Falls, New York due to a more vibrant tourism industry which was largely built up in the 1990s, and a stronger economy. Niagara Falls, Ontario also has a better view of
the falls.Niagara Falls, New York:A Rust Belt city remotely resembling the nearby city of Buffalo, New York in a region known as Buffalo-Niagara. The area originally had several chemical plants and industries, due to the vast power of the Niagara River, but now has a high unemployment rate of about 12% and a failing economy. It is the site of Love Canal, one of the worst pollution disasters in US history. At its peak it boasted well over 100,000 people but has since declined to nearly half of that. It falls behind its
Canadian neighbor, which has a much stronger economy and a vibrant tourism industry.

Niagara Falls, NY: A shithole.
Niagara Falls, ON, Canada: Slightly better than
Niagara Falls, New York, but still a shithole, despite what people think. Due to the tourism many are deluded into thinking that Niagara Falls is a clean, thriving city. This is primarily due to the upkeep of the tourist section of it, however, one only has to go up a couple blocks from the main tourist area to be in the dirtiest,
grimiest part of town.

This only applies to the NY side. A crappy city in Western New York that lost half its population between 1970 and now. A place of high crime, dead celebrities, abandoned houses, and corrupt politicians. Basically, everything here is good until the government takes interest in it. The last mayor of
Niagara Falls (
speaking of which, they haven't re-elected a mayor in about 25 years) was just indicted. The main attractions on our side of
the gorge are: abandoned factories, smelly toxic waste dumps, and Indian restaurants. Niagara Falls, Ontario is the opposite. Niagara Falls' nickname is no longer "The Honeymoon Capital of the World", it is now "Dyster's Dystopia", named for our mayor who will likely be the fifth one-term mayor of Niagara Falls. Niagara Falls, Ontario is the opposite.

A town in Southern Ontario, Canada, best know for it's hisoric horseshow-shaped waterfall. A growing tourist destination over the years, it is now home to many casinos, clubs, hotels, restaurants, and Gentlemen's Clubs. Sometimes refered to as the Las Vegas of Canada. A popular area is
Clifton Hill, where people from many countries, and locals from other municipalities in the
Niagara region can be found, because it's just about the only good place to go if you live here. Unfortunately, this this area is heavily policed, because of the car loads of American college students who come over to go to the bars and start chirping people and starting fights because they've never been to a bar before or had good
Canadian beer, which is stronger then what they have back home.
Example:
Non-Canadian: "So, where are you from"
Canadian: "Canada"
Non-Canaidan: "Ohhh, igloos, hockey, and Niagara Falls!"
Canadian: "
Umm,
yeah I guess"
