    For those of you that don't know where or what Hamilton is, Hamilton is a city based in the central north island of New Zealand.
    This is not where I was born, but where I was brought up.
    I will always call this my home town. The good old Tron!
    Please share what you think of Hamilton down below.
    Good or bad, everyone has their freedom of speech, and I want to hear your say on Hamilton.

    I used to live in Hamilton - I now live in Wellington. And I can confirm Hamilton is better. It is a great city. Open, green, great housing stock. Beautiful. And I'd like to add - those 3 girls are annoying as heck - they'd probably say the same about any place they went to - I'd say it's more their lifestyle choices they're making rather than Hamilton being bad.

    Hamilton is a great place. Lots of good resturants and shops, literally beside my school is an organic cafe, bakeries and resturants, and ice cream shops etc. It gets alot of shit as you can see in the video but it really is a good place.

    Hamilton isn't a bad place, it's the people in Hamilton that make the difference. Notice how the youth are the ones to point out the bad things? To me it's the younger generation who make up majority of Hamilton's rep. I mean, should 16/17 year olds know about the spread of aids in Hamilton, whether it's true or not? I can tell where and who the problems are in Hamilton, and it ain't the grown ups.

    Hamilton is okay. Lived in Hamilton for 24 years, almost all of my life. Never been much of a "go into town and socialise" type person, so I can't comment on that side of things. It gets a bit too hot in summer, but at least the winters are pleasant and not too cold. Lots of beautiful parks around here, and it's almost like walking in the bush, some of them. Braithwaite Park, Hammond Park, Sanford Park, Donny Park.... the list goes on. Although I'd rather live by the ocean or near some mountains, some of the parks here are the next best thing. A few boofheads around, who like alcohol, noisy cars and playing music all night, and want to fight me when I tell them I have work in the morning. But other than that Hamilton is okay.

      Never lived in Huntly but been there many times! I’m from Otahuhu originally, grew up there and also lived in Temple View for 3 years. Huntly looks like a pretty decent example of small town NZ to live in in relative quiet and peace and people living there have the convenient choice of 2 great metropolitan areas to visit with a nice Motorway for access! Similar to people living in Kenosha or Waukegan. Sort of middle between Milwaukee WISCONSIN and Chicago ILLINOIS. I love Hamilton!!!

    Hamilton is an average place. Nothing new or exciting happens often in Hamilton, a really "same stuff different day" sort of feel. A few misfits here and there (wouldn't exclude myself from that group sometimes), but hey, it's in New Zealand, and as a whole, the country ain't bad at all.
