Inspired by the proposed "live-work-play" community near downtown Guelph (read more about it here), last week's poll asked whether living near a former prison would be a problem for you.
Roughly half, at 54 per cent, said they would live near a former jail (though some on Twitter noted a big difference between a "former" prison and a current one).
Almost a quarter (23 per cent) said they wouldn't live/buy in the neighbourhood near a former prison. Thirteen per cent said they "maybe" would do so, while the remaining 10 per cent said they didn't know.
