Central Erin Mills

Once known primarily for farming and manufacturing, the area that includes Central Erin Mills began to change in the 1950s. Canadian Equity and Development Limited began purchasing land—and by the late 60s, there were plans to build a new residential “town.” Erin Mills Central, which was constructed in the 80s, was its third phase.

Today, this development is one of Mississauga’s most in-demand neighbourhoods. What was originally 32 acres of farmland became an enormous master-planned subdivision, which is now home to a large, thriving community of Mississauga residents.

You’ll find a wide variety of home types in Central Erin Mills, though some of the most desirable are single-family houses with traditional layouts. Many residents enjoy the suburban lifestyle that the area offers, along with its urban amenities and shopping centres.

Due to its close proximity to some of Mississauga’s top-rated schools, Central Erin Mills attracts a lot of younger families. Its many spacious houses and safe, relatively quiet streets are also major draws among this demographic.

Apart from being ideally located in one of Mississauga top-performing school districts, Central Erin Mills is extremely convenient. The 403, 401, and QEW highways—and the Streetsville GO Station—are all easily accessible.

This area is chock-full of convenient amenities. Along with public green spaces and trails, it provides easy access to Erin Mills Town Centre. This shopping hotspot, which sits at the intersection of Erin Mills Parkway and Eglinton Avenue West, features more than 180 stores and restaurants. Whether you’re looking for jewellery, clothing, toys, or a bite to eat, this is the place to find it!

It bears repeating: the selection of excellent schools in Central Erin Mills is one of its top selling points. In fact, much of the housing demand in the community is driven by it. Highly-reputable options include Castle Bridge Public School, Thomas Street Middle School, St. Aloysius Gonzaga Secondary School, and John Fraser Secondary School.
