With a population of just 27,595, Leamington is a sleepy Ontario town that trades more on its claims to being the "Tomato Capital of Canada" than any real urban appeal. The closure of the Heinz factory in 2014 was a major blow, though a new owner has kept some 250 jobs processing canned goods. Migrant workers from Mexico and the Caribbean prop up the greenhouse industry, but Leamington has a history as an unwelcoming "sundown town" for Black residents. The climate is moderated by Lake Erie, but the area is prone to damaging tornadoes. Overall, Leamington seems better suited for retirees and nature lovers than ambitious professionals.
