Oakville,
Ontario
Ranked Canada’s #1 place to live — where lakefront elegance, world-class golf, and charming heritage neighbourhoods create one of the GTA’s most coveted addresses.
Where Charm Meets Sophistication
Two Stunning Harbours
Oakville and Bronte Harbours are the heart of lakeside living. From yacht clubs and waterfront dining to heritage parks and scenic marinas, the shoreline is where the community comes alive — especially in summer.
Historic Downtown
Over 400 shops, restaurants, and services line Oakville’s charming downtown — a mix of converted 19th-century buildings, high-end boutiques, artisanal cafés, and upscale dining. Heritage architecture meets modern sophistication.
Top-Rated Schools
Home to Appleby College — one of Canada’s most prestigious private schools — along with outstanding Halton public, Catholic, and French-immersion options. Sheridan College brings 16,000 full-time students to town, adding energy and diversity to the community.
Lakeside Living at Its Finest
Nestled on the shores of Lake Ontario between Toronto and Hamilton, Oakville was ranked Canada’s #1 place to live in 2018 — and it’s easy to see why. With over 400 shops and restaurants lining its historic downtown streets, two picturesque harbours, and some of the best schools in the province, Oakville offers the rare combination of small-town charm and big-city convenience.
Just a 30-minute drive from downtown Toronto, Oakville is perfectly positioned for professionals and families who want space, nature, and a genuine sense of community — without giving up access to the city.
With a median household income of $128,000, top-rated Halton Region schools, and over 1,400 hectares of parkland, Oakville attracts families and professionals who value quality of life above all else.

Oakville by the Numbers
Home of the Canadian Open
Glen Abbey Golf Club has hosted 31 Canadian Open championships since opening in 1977. Tiger Woods famously defeated Grant Waite here in 2000, and both Golf Canada and the Canadian Golf Hall of Fame call it home.
An Underground Railroad Stop
Oakville was one of the key stations on the Underground Railroad, helping enslaved African Americans escape to freedom in Canada. Bronte Village served as an entry point, and many chose to build their lives right here on the lakeshore.
Olympic Paddlers Trained Here
The Burloak Canoe Club on Sixteen Mile Creek has produced Olympic medal-winning paddlers including Larry Cain, Adam van Koeverden, and Mark Oldershaw — making Oakville a quiet powerhouse of Canadian sport.
Bought for $4,116
The entire parcel of land now known as the Town of Oakville was purchased at auction for approximately $4,116 in 1827 by founder William Chisholm. His family’s Erchless Estate is now the Oakville Museum — and worth considerably more than the original price.
