This is the twelfth segment of a 19-part blog-series that showcases Mississauga's unique commmunities. We realized that a lot of our clients were coming from outside Mississauga, and while knowing the top schools is important, they have asked for more information about the individual communities these schools reside in and the real estate available. This is an important criteria not lost on us as finding a neighbourhood that fits your lifestyle is extremely important. We've already ranked the communities based on school zones (which you can find here), so now let's take a little bit of time to get to know our communities. Next up: Lisgar!

Final Thoughts on Lisgar

Lisgar is essentially the western part of the bigger community of Meadowvale. It resides to the North of the newer Churchill Meadows, but shares a lot in common with the area. The homes are slightly older in Lisgar than Churchill Meadows, which makes them more affordable than their neighbour to the south. Tucked away in the northwest corner of Mississauga, Lisgar is a good place for first-time home buyers with young families to settle in. For those with bigger or expanding families that are looking for that first detached home, take a long look at Lisgar as there are lots of affordable options. As a bonus, for those that work in Toronto, Lisgar boasts easy access to its local GO Station.

In terms of the school zone, Lisgar has performed adequately. The elementary schools fall into the average of Mississauga along with the middle and high schools. Nothing particularly stands out about the school zone, so if affordability is your biggest deterrent, you can feel comfortable in the Lisgar neighbourhood.
