Right
And you could've bought a great house for cheap...in 2015!
Imho: The cities with viable traditional downtowns in Niagara would be Grimsby, Port Colborne, Thorold, Ridgeway (part of Fort Erie).
Niagara-on-the-Lake is too tourist centric, although the most manicured/pretty by far.
Welland, Niagara Falls, and Fort Erie's old downtown (Bridgeburg) are still in
not great shape. At least Niagara Falls has a craft brewery downtown
St. Catharines was getting much better with the new arena, performing arts centre, Brock University's school of performing arts, and an indie screen theatre, new restaurants and bars, independent shops... until covid killed its momentum.

Because idiots from the Greater Toronto Area will pay full asking price or get into bidding wars with locals that don't have the nest egg GTA people do.
Realtors are literally just making up numbers to see if anyone bites.
Like niwell said, there's a bunch of tiny cottages still for sale in Crystal Beach (Fort Erie) because they are so overpriced.
