Personally my experience has had pros and cons. The school systems academically are great but socially not so great. Also, housing is super expensive.
In Norfolk County, I have been blessed with a safe atmosphere during the eighteen years for which I have lived here. Moreover, the school systems are of the utmost safety and security and promote an interactive learning experience. There are a plethora of fantastic restaurants to attend, ranging from Japanese Hibachi to American bars. Most of all, I have had such a wonderful experience in Norfolk County because it is a well-kept county that promotes community.
It's full of natural beauty and has an excellent system of schools. Crime isn't really a major concern, and there's many interesting people to meet!
