Living in St. John's
Shopping There are several major shopping districts in St. John's. Kelsey Drive, off Kenmount Road, offers a number of big-box options. The Stavanger Drive area, off Torbay Road, is a huge retail area hosting many of Canada's top chains, as well as restaurants. There are two shopping malls, Avalon Mall and the Village Mall, as well as various strip malls. Downtown has many specialty shops and boutiques that, combined with the many restaurant options there, make for a great afternoon out.
Getting Around St. John's is best travelled by car: commutes are reasonable compared to some cities, traffic jams are rare within city limits and it's not uncommon to find drivers that are courteous, stopping to help other drivers enter traffic. There are some odd intersections and one-way streets to watch out for downtown where streets tend to follow wagon tracks created a very long time ago. It really does add to the uniqueness of downtown. There is a public transit system: Metrobus. Walking around St. John's, however, can be a bit challenging in the winter months due to snowfall amount. There are some cyclists, but not many. Cyclists should exercise extra caution.
Climate St. John's has a temperate climate, with no extremes in temperature. Winter is relatively mild, but quite snowy, and summer isn't hot. Known affectionately as Fog City, St. John's is the foggiest Canadian city and one of the windiest. That may be the reason why the people of St. John's turn to art, music and pubs!
Arts, Culture & Fun St. John’s has a reputation as a cultural and arts centre. There is a thriving theatre community, and many venues to catch live music, especially on famous George Street, with its 23 bars.
