That's not modern city life.

What you describe is why we chose to move on from Hamilton. It has plenty of advantages, but we didn't want to raise kids near a "Main Street" that looked more like an expressway (this was near Locke Street). I don't think it's entitled to expect not to have near-misses on the walk to the grocery store.
