Some of the criteria: large-town setting, with outdoor activities year-round, a body of water, affordable (we are teachers), close to a city (within 2 hours drive), close to a college or university (so that there is culture, restaurants, educational-happenings, etc.)

If you love human ways and "joie de vivre", around Montreal is your best place, maybe Vancouver second. Montreal has one of the richest cultural lifre, a beach you can reach by metro, many good universities, bilingual most of the time. It has a lot of great outdoors activities (hiking, cycling, ice skating, skiing, camping, tree walking, wildlife/birds observations) directly in town or within an hour drive. People are nice. For major town in Canada, Montreal is the safest and one of the cheapest in Canada.
Teachers are actually in demand for many domains, and if you want to have kids, you'll have a lot of money and help from the government.

I would look around Toronto, find a lakeside property within 20 miles or so---there are lakes EVERYWHERE. Toronto has it all---everything you might want, and the people there are AWESOME---my sis in Minnesota flies there every chance she gets and loves it. Rule of thumb---find a place you can afford that is close to a city and far enough away that you never have to lock your doors. then, you're home. Oh, don't forget to be close enough to a main road that is plowed routinely that you can get to the road in bad weather, or have a garage you can back into and get a bit of a running start. Teacher must not be late :) The town itself is less important than the home, and statistics mean nothing.

Go to google and click on Victoria, British Columbia.
Victoria is a city but there are towns nearby, Sidney, Sooke, Langford etc. within commuting distance
