Area Guides

Everywhere between Burlington and Bowmanville.

All 29 of them. What each place is actually like rather than what it sells as, how the locals say the name, what is worth the drive, and the one drawback nobody mentions on a listing.

  • Peel

    Mississauga

    Canada's seventh-largest city, and nobody's second choice any more. A real downtown at Square One, a lakeshore strung with harbour villages, and one of the most linguistically diverse populations on earth.

  • Peel

    Brampton

    Young, fast and unapologetically itself. Brampton has one of the youngest median ages of any big city in Canada, an OHL team it got back, and Punjabi, Caribbean and Nigerian food that the rest of the GTA drives out here for.

    Caledon

    The GTA's back garden. Rolling hills, gravel roads, the Bruce Trail, and villages (Bolton, Caledon East, Inglewood, Alton) that carry on as though they are not half an hour from a six-lane highway.

We have got something wrong.

Almost certainly. A place closed, a name is off, the drawback is the wrong drawback. Every guide here is written to be checked, so tell us and we will fix it.

HelloGTA

The Greater Toronto Area, Ontario, Canada

The GTA is enormous and most of it is unknown to everybody, including the people who have lived here twenty-five years. This is what is worth knowing, between Burlington and Bowmanville.
