Mississauga, Ontario

Mississauga, Ontario

A city built from
a dozen villages.

Canada's seventh-largest city, on the lake between Toronto and Oakville — and still a collection of distinct communities, each with its own main street.

By the Numbers

Canada's seventh-largest city,
and it grew up fast.

Mississauga sits on Lake Ontario in Peel Region, bordered by Toronto to the east, Brampton to the north and Oakville to the southwest. It became a city in 1974 by amalgamating the Town of Mississauga with Port Credit and Streetsville.

Median Age

01

On the Lake

Twenty-two kilometres of Lake Ontario shoreline, the harbour at Port Credit, and the Waterfront Trail running the length of it.

02

Canada's Busiest Airport

Toronto Pearson sits inside Mississauga's northern boundary — a major employer, and the reason the city's corporate corridor exists.

03

A Real Downtown

City Centre around Square One has grown into a genuine core: towers, Celebration Square, the Living Arts Centre and a library.

04

The Credit River

The river cuts the city in half north to south, with Riverwood, Erindale Park and the Culham Trail strung along its valley.

05

Transit That's Changing

Three GO lines with stations at Port Credit, Clarkson, Cooksville, Erindale, Streetsville, Meadowvale, Lisgar and Malton — plus the Hurontario LRT.

06

One of Canada's Most Diverse

More than half of residents were born outside Canada, and it shows in the food, the festivals and the neighbourhoods.

Population, area and median age from the 2021 Census of Population (Statistics Canada). The City notes that with the census undercount, the 2021 figure is closer to 756,100.

What People Love

Why people move here
and then stay.

Ask ten Mississauga residents why they chose it and you'll get roughly these six answers.

Port Credit waterfront
The Water
Port Credit and the lake
Twenty-two kilometres of shoreline, the marina and lighthouse at Port Credit, Jack Darling and Rattray Marsh out west, and the Waterfront Trail linking the lot of it.
Streetsville village
The Villages
A dozen main streets
Streetsville, Port Credit, Clarkson, Malton, Meadowvale Village — Mississauga was assembled from villages, and each kept its own high street and personality.
Credit River valley
Green Space
The Credit River valley
The Credit cuts the city north to south, with Erindale Park, Riverwood, the Culham Trail and Rattray Marsh — over 500 parks in total.
Mississauga schools
Schools
Boards, campuses and choice
Peel District and Dufferin-Peel Catholic boards, French Immersion across both, plus UTM's campus on the Credit and Sheridan's Hazel McCallion campus downtown.
Mississauga commute
The Commute
Every way out of town
Eight GO stations across three lines, the QEW, 401, 403, 407 and 410, MiWay across the city, and Pearson on the doorstep.
Celebration Square
Community
One of Canada's most diverse cities
Celebration Square all summer, the Streetsville Bread and Honey Festival, Port Credit's Southside Shuffle, and food from just about everywhere.
