Oakville Neighbourhoods

Queen ElizabethThe QEW Corridor

Not a subdivision but a corridor — the Queen Elizabeth district runs the full width of Oakville along the QEW, from Winston Churchill to Burloak. Long known as the town's employment lands, it is now where much of Oakville's new condominium development is going up, minutes from both GO stations.

Neighbourhood Vibe

Queen Elizabeth is unusual among Oakville's districts — it isn't a subdivision but a corridor, running the full width of the town along the QEW and 403 from Winston Churchill Boulevard west to Burloak Drive. Most of it has long been recognised as employment and industrial land, which is exactly why the residential side of it looks nothing like the rest of Oakville.

Property Pulse

This is condominium territory. The established buildings on Old Mill Road sit adjacent to Oakville GO, joined more recently by high-rise development at Kerr and Speers, with further building planned along that stretch. Units tend toward compact living space, but many carry genuine views out over the residential neighbourhoods, creeks, ravines and the lake.

Community Canvas

The buyer profile here is distinct from anywhere else in town — young singles, professional couples, downsizers and retirees, drawn by the price point and the proximity to transit rather than by lot size or school catchment. Schools serving the corridor include E.J. James and T.A. Blakelock, St. Mary, St. Nicholas and St. Thomas Aquinas, with Wildwood Academy at the eastern end.

What You'll Love

The single best commute in Oakville — the QEW and 403 are immediate, and both Oakville and Bronte GO sit within the corridor. Lyons Lane runs a Town-managed community garden with forty-six plots. Everything else Oakville offers, from the harbour to the shopping districts, is a short drive in either direction.
