Call me nuts but I don't think Niagara Falls qualifies as a real city.

"Not sure I agree with you there. I mean, yeah lots of highrises but when you're actually downtown, it doesn't feel like its THAT dense. In my opinion, its the smallest feeling big city i've ever been to haha."
I agree. Walking from the Granville Bridge to the West End looks dense but when walking it it feels like a coastal resort town. There is not retail on every block like you have in other big Eastern Canadian cities. |

Niagara Falls is like Gatlinburg, Tennessee. It's a total tourist town.

You right, but most Canadian cities are the same, excluding Toronto. They are small and beautiful.

Aside from Toronto....Quebec, Newfoundland and Nova Scotia have very unique cities.

Niagara Falls may be a big draw for tourists, but the St. Catharine's-Niagara Falls Census Metropolitan Area had a population of 390,317 in 2006. It's by no means a big city, but it's a little too big to call a town, or merely a tourist spot. This is a city with a substantial resident population, auto plants, Brock University, and all the characteristics of a regular city. Niagara Falls is just as much a real city as Reno, Atlantic City, or Honolulu. All tourist towns, but all real cities.
