I can only help you by describing Hamilton, I lived there 4 months as a part of my school's program and returned to Mexico (But looking to come back and settle if possible). Hamilton is indeed smaller than Toronto, but it still is a pretty big town. And while it is an industrialized town, it is in my opinion beautiful and peaceful (take into account I was there on 2006 and I am from Mexico), had no problems at all over there and most of the people I met were nice, kind and had no problem on helping me with directions, advice, etc (I guess that's just the Canadian way, but mind I also met people who on instances were very aggressive).
I lived at CIC's pinehall residence on mountainview, which seemed a rather serene area away from downtown. summer is warm, which was nice, and winter, well I did not experience it, so I cant help you there. What I loved about Hamilton was the vast array of lakes and creeks.
I loved that place so much Id rather have you asking me questions, because I cannot describe in a post all the awesomeness!
But do mind that on optimal weather Hamilton is 40 minutes away from Toronto
