And in the communities near the city such as Ilderton, the lots are even larger.
Mississauga is truly a city of extremes. In the northwest the subdivisions marketed as singles are more or less glorified townhomes. As we all know the city center is beginning to rival North York in its condo boom while Meadowvale is the epitomy of the office park. South of the 401 you'll find many communities such as Birchwood, Mineola and Lorne Park where forested 1-2 acre lots are the norm.
