East Gwillimbury

Ideally located about 30 minutes north of Toronto, East Gwillimbury is more than meets the eye. This town of approximately 38,000 residents was formed in the 1970s, when the Township of East Gwillimbury was merged with the surrounding villages and hamlets. As a result, a town that mixes both urban and country living was created. Nearly most of East Gwillimbury is made up of green spaces– farms, parks, and recreational areas. But in the town’s urban centres, local businesses and services thrive while various amenities enrich the local quality of life.
