Oakville Neighbourhoods

TRREB carves Oakville into twenty-one communities, best read from the shoreline northward. On the water: Bronte, Southwest Oakville, Old Oakville, Morrison and Ford, with Clearview just inland beside Winston Churchill Boulevard. Between the shore and the QEW: West Oakville and Central Oakville, with Kerr Village inside the latter. From the QEW up to Dundas Street: Bronte Creek, Westmount, West Oak Trails, Glen Abbey, River Oaks, College Park, Falgarwood, Wedgewood Creek and Joshua Creek. North of Dundas: Northwest Oakville, Glenorchy, Joshua Meadows and Rural Oakville, which holds the land still to be built. Every guide covers where the lines run, when the houses went up, how to reach a GO station, which boards serve the streets and where the parks are, and the REPG team has walked every street in them.

Questions people ask about Oakville Neighbourhoods

Where should a GO commuter start looking in Oakville?

Central Oakville, where Oakville GO sits on Cross Avenue at the community's eastern edge and the Kerr Street blocks are a walk away, then Old Oakville and College Park, each a brief bus hop or a cycle from the platform. West Oakville is the natural fit for Bronte GO. North of Dundas, count on a drive or an Oakville Transit route.

What is the newest part of Oakville?

Glenorchy and Joshua Meadows, north of Dundas Street and flanking Trafalgar Road, building since roughly 2012, and Northwest Oakville beyond Neyagawa Boulevard as its first phases open. The Trafalgar Road corridor and the Uptown Core are where the next decade of condo building is planned.

Which Oakville communities touch Lake Ontario?

Roughly speaking, five: Bronte, Southwest Oakville, Old Oakville, Morrison and, at the eastern end, Ford; Clearview sits a block inland beside Winston Churchill. Lots that meet the water are scarce, since Coronation Park, Gairloch Gardens, the two harbours and the smaller lakeside parks take up much of the shore, so most lake-side homes stand a street or two behind it.
