How could one gravitate to the south end of Toronto (unless you have gills or want to live on a boat, or are one of the lucky few hundred living on the Toronto islands).
Montreal's south is Pointe St. Charles...which was an economically-deprived neighborhood for more than a century. For decades, Montreal's north shore (La Couronne Nord ou Rive-Nord) grew much faster than the south shore.
The "best" neighborhoods in the city where I now live are in the northern parts of the city (London). Which is also growing faster than its southern reaches. I am pretty sure this is also the case with KWC.
North Vancouver (and adjacent west Vancouver, which is to the north of the city) is far wealthier than just about any other part of Vancouver.
I'd say there is little merit in the thesis being advanced.
Now, if it were about "East vs. West" parts of a city...
