Experience Mississauga – A Global City with Local Heart

Mississauga is one of Canada’s largest and most dynamic cities, located just west of Toronto along the shores of Lake Ontario. With a population of nearly 800,000, Mississauga is a diverse, fast-paced, and future-focused city that offers world-class amenities, global business opportunities, and vibrant neighbourhoods — all within easy reach of downtown Toronto.

A Diverse, Inclusive Community

Mississauga is one of the most multicultural cities in the world, home to residents from more than 200 distinct ethnic backgrounds. This cultural richness is reflected in every part of the city — from local festivals and cuisine to community events and educational programming.

Whether you're enjoying Carassauga, the city’s renowned multicultural festival, or discovering global cuisine in Streetsville, Cooksville, or Malton, Mississauga celebrates diversity every day.

Urban Living by the Lake

Mississauga’s waterfront stretches along Lake Ontario, offering beautiful parks, walking trails, marinas, and lakefront villages like Port Credit and Lakeview. Whether you're enjoying a stroll by the water, dining with a view, or attending summer events and concerts, the waterfront lifestyle here is second to none.

At the city’s centre, Downtown Mississauga is a modern urban core, anchored by the iconic Absolute Towers, Square One Shopping Centre (one of Canada’s largest malls), and the Living Arts Centre, which hosts performances, art exhibitions, and community programming year-round.

A Thriving Business and Innovation Hub

Mississauga is an economic powerhouse, home to over 98,000 businesses and more than 75 Fortune 500 Canadian headquarters. Its economy is fueled by sectors like life sciences, advanced manufacturing, fintech, aerospace, logistics, and clean technology.

With proximity to Pearson International Airport, the 401, 403, and QEW highways, and direct connections to GO Transit and MiWay, Mississauga is one of the most strategically located business hubs in North America.

Education and Opportunity

The city is home to top-ranked public and private schools, as well as higher education institutions like the University of Toronto Mississauga (UTM) and Sheridan College’s Hazel McCallion Campus. These institutions not only offer academic excellence but also foster innovation and talent development for the future economy.

Parks, Trails, and Green Living

Despite its urban growth, Mississauga has preserved thousands of acres of parkland and natural space. Residents can enjoy over 500 parks, 23 major trail systems, and scenic conservation areas such as Rattray Marsh, Erindale Park, and Jack Darling Memorial Park.

Whether it's cycling, running, or simply enjoying the outdoors, Mississauga offers green space around every corner.

A City for Every Stage of Life

Mississauga is designed for livability. From high-rise condos and lakefront townhomes to quiet suburban streets and family-friendly communities, there’s a neighbourhood to suit every lifestyle. Excellent healthcare, modern recreation centres, cultural institutions, and a growing public transit system make it one of the most complete cities to call home.

Mississauga: Where You Belong

Whether you're moving your family, launching a business, or looking for a vibrant, connected place to live, Mississauga delivers. It’s a city of global energy with a local heart — welcoming, ambitious, and always evolving.
