- Oakville, a town in Halton Region, on Lake Ontario in Southern Ontario, Canada, and is part of the Greater Toronto Area.
Oakville's first industries included shipbuilding, timber shipment, and wheat farming. In the 1850s, there was an economic recession and the foundry, the most important industry in town, was closed. Basket-making became a major industry in the town, and the Grand Trunk Railway was built through it.
The town eventually became industrialized with the opening of Petro Canada and Shell Canada oil refineries (both now closed), the Procor factory, and, most importantly, the Ford Motor Company's Canadian headquarters and plant, all close to the Canadian National Railway and the Queen Elizabeth Way highway between Toronto and Fort Erie (Buffalo).
In 1962 the town of Oakville merged with its neighbouring villages to become the new Town of Oakville, reaching northwards to Steeles Avenue in Milton. In 1973, the restructuring of Halton County into Halton Region brought the northern border southwards to just north of Highway 407.

When I first moved to Ontario back in 2008, I visited a couple of friends in Oakville and instantly felt in Love with this City, it reminded me a lot of where I grew up and I vowed to one Day to be living here, Finally in November 2014 I moved here.
I LOVE it here, So many options for Everything, it's the "Friendliest" Place I've lived in since I moved to Canada in 2004. Not much of a Night Life, but I think it's because it's more of a Family Community. I Finally Feel more "At Home" for the first time in 10 years in Canada. Looking forward to raising the Kids here and establishing myself here.
good to hear that you found a place where you feel at home. it looks beautiful .
Adriana Lessels Oakville, Southern Ontario, Canada bordering on Western Lake Ontario is ``A Town of Oakville ``NOT`` a City, Oakville only has a maximum of 183,000 People in the Eastern Part of Halton Region, that makes Oakville, Southern Ontario, Canada, The Town of Oakville NOT any City like neighboring Burlington CITY which has over 500,000 People next to the City of Hamilton, both Burlington and Hamilton are Cities with their own Metropolitan Public Transport, while the Quiet Town of Oakville has the GO-Transit Green-Blue Oakville GO-Trains GO-Transit Oakville Public Transport System. The Town of Oakville Public Transit is owned and operated by GO-Transit of Union Station in the City of Toronto, thus Oakville has Nothing to due with Halton Transit but Everything Transit to do with GO--Transit Union Station , Toronto owned Municipality with The GO--Transit Town of Oakville GO--Transit and Union Station , Toronto Oakville GO--Transit Public Transit Systems of Oakville Allied with Union Systam Metropolitan Toronto, Ontario , Canada where GO--Transit Town of Oakville is the Quietest Millionaires Houses and Homes of the Western Deepest Suburban Town of GO-Transit Oakville ``Day Time, Western Last Station GO--Train Station Stop called the Quiet Town of Deep Suburban Oakville GO--Transit--Toronto, Ontario,Canada System NOT any Halton Foreign System which only abuses innocent Oakville People with their Corrupt Halton Abusive Police Department, where Oakville Residents need is an O.P.P.

Jules Verne what is mississauga like? as a single person moving to the region, do you recommend Toronto, mississauga, or another region? (I'll have to look for a job, so it can't be too far and I don't have a car)
Adriana Lessels Oakville is a Town not a City!
as Mayor Rob Burton has stated "Oakville is a city that calls itself a town and acts like a village within the small neighbourhoods"
Oakville actually has an economically diverse population (not just a "bunch of rich kids" ) and there are many different homes, townhomes and condos to choose from - not all expensive. Great place to raise a family.
Oakville is much more expensive than most other places. Dont try to convince me it is not expensive. I just went there and I saw a bunch of mansions. And small townhouses starting at 1.1 million. The closer you get to toronto the more expensive it gets.
I can do anything literally anything just to live in such a beautiful, breathtaking, stunning place ❤❤❤ people who live here is one of the luckiest ones in the world.
Walking the streets of Oakville is one of my biggest dreams in life..ONE DAY FOR SURE :)
Really?

The worst thing about living in Oakville is your 1hour + commute to your day job in Toronto.
One Summer Days, from Oakville , ontario, canada, your commute to your day job can be 2 Hours to as much as 2 and 1/2 Hours each way on the Q.E.W. Highway depending on rush hour Highway Traffic. Oakville, ontario, canada is a deep Suburban Town of Oakville with approx. 183,000 People considered The ""Town of Oakville, even by the Mayor and past Mayors of the Town of Oakville""!!
The above comment commute is from the Town of Oakville to Toronto Q.E.W. High Traffic Hours Conjestion each way, so 2 ways from work and back can reach as high as 5 hours just on the Q.E.W. Highway Summers per day. That is a LOT of Ultra High STRESS per Week , Month, almost impossible to tolerate per annual yearly commute. Consider East Mississauga, each will then be only an average of 20 minutes per day each way or 40 minutes both ways from East Missisauga Cawthra Rd.Q.E.W. HighWay Exit and Entry to Toronto and back from your Jobs in the Huge Colossus City of TORONTO, Ontario,Canada, keep and Highway Q.E.W. Car verify the above comment yourself, don''t just take my word for it, but you will see that on average, my comments are verifiable closer to reality verified Q.E.W. Highway Cars checks, don't forget about Parking in Toronto for you Daily Jobs in Toronto including Expensive $90.00 Dollar Parking Tickets in the City of Toronto, when your Parking Meters Expires, the Metropolitan Traffic Police and even worse in Mississauga Traffic Police are ALWAYS watching in Secret Streets, what time you Park your Cars and what time the Parking Meters Expire to give you the BIG one Day $90.00 Dollars Parking Tickets both in Metropolitan Toronto and especially ALL of Mississauga being the worst at $125.00 Dollars Parking Tickets after your Parked Cars Expire their Parking allotted Times. 90% of the Money Income of the City of Mississauga comes from Parking Tickets and the Peel Regional Mississauga Police Department is ALWAYS watching when you Cars Park in Mississauga and the Parking Meters Expire. Mississauga Parking Peel Region Police authorities also put lots of daily and annual yearly Parking Tickets on regular neighborhood streets too, so watch out when Parking your Cars in Mississauga, Ontario,Canada, Mississauga, Ontario,canada is the ""Trigger Happy Parking Tickets Capital of this Planet Earth, Mississauga is the worst place to park you car in the World because it also includes regular very common Parking ""Tow Truck Away your Cars too, at you own Expense + ALL impending Costs and Fees to Towed Away Vehicle Cars Parked in the City of Mississauga, the Truly GARBAGE CAN CITY of Mississauga which is also the ""Greatest Light Pollution City out of Canada, at East Mississauga, at ""PALGRAVE (A Real Graveyard Park for Amateur Astronomy/Amateur Astronomer's Garbage Can Trash Palgrave Park of East Mississauga, Ontario,Canada:)Palgrave Park Astronomy--Nightmares of the worst out of Palgrave Park of East Mississauga,Ontario,Canada Trash Garbage East Mississauga Muslim Islam Quran Palgrave Community Park of East Mississauga near the shore coast of Lake, Ontario, Ontario East Mississauga , Ontario,Canada on the Worst Clear Sky Nights out of North America , I could only see 2 Stars of Extreme ""East Mississauga Massive Light Pollution, and Extreme SkyGlow Nights of Super High Sky 85% Humidity Atmosphere Summer Nights, East Mississauga is the ""Ultimate Astronomers and Amateur Astronomers ""Ultra HORROR NIGHTMARE GARBAGE CAN SKIES you will ever see because of the Extra Ultra High Humidity Summer Hot Ultra Heavy SkyGlow Nights + Extra Light Pollution Ultra Heavy Night Lighting Street Lights Scattering their Night Lights in Every Direction known, worse than even the large City of Los Angeles and New York City combined in Light Pollution + Ultra Heavy East Mississauga, Ontario,canada Super Heavy Humidity Summer Nights SkyGlows + Ultra Heavy Light Pollution Street Heavy Lights,making East Mississauga Nights worse than the Cities Toronto, Canada, and Los Angeles and New York combined in Night Pollution and Heavy SkyGlow Skies Nights of the United States with your naked eyes, Worse than in the City of Toronto, Los Angelas and New York combined in Night Polluted Skies.Also, when Parking your Cars in Mississauga, Ontario,Canada, watch out on your wrist watches to make sure your well before 5 minutes before the Mississauga Parking Meters don''t Expire because the Peel Regional Mississauga Police react in Seconds to give you that BIG $125.00 Giant Mississauga Parking Tickets including residence ordinary Car Parked Streets also quickly Parking Ticket Fine or Towed Away Cars in the City of Mississauga, Ontariok,Canada .

Beautiful!👍🙂👍
People who are commenting negatively about town of Oakville, probably can't even afford a house here, properties are super expensive and one has to love that environment to be able to live and enjoy this small lakefront town. The entire GTA envy of Oakville and Burlington for a reason and you can see why. If you have a good income, steady job, a family with kids, I would say Oakville and Burlington are best place to live in Canandaigua....moreover they both are voted #2 and #3 best places to live in Canada 10 years in a row.
This is definitely not true. Oakville was once beautiful but you can't go to any of the parks without Muslims everywhere. They litter, they're obnoxious, they have no manners and will push your child off the swing so they can have a turn etc. Oakville is officially turning into Brampton aka Brown town
I'm going to Toronto tomorrow from Scotland to visit family, I always like visiting Toronto it really is a great city,
scottishthroandthro67 Toronto is a great city. For people who prefer living in large houses, they prefer moving to Oakville which is a suburban town of the Great Toronto Area. If you are young, you would enjoy Dowtown Toronto. If you want to settle down with your family, Oakville is really good. Oakville is connected to downtown by the QEW highway. So you can still easily commute to downtown. 40 min drive. It has every reason for the real estate to be high. Lastly, its a very White place. Some people prefer it to live in White areas.
halfvolley11 I have family all over Toronto, they Live in Etobcoke, Oakville, Islington, Danforth, Oshawa, Pickering, Ajax, Whitby, lots of Scots all over the place, I acyually ended up staying with a cousin in Cambridge, nice area to,
scottishthroandthro67 Good for you. Did you choose Cambridge because of its British origin, called Cambridge? Are you a Cambridge University,graduate or something lol. Bad joke ..
Cambridge is too far isn't it?
By the way Islington is in Etobikoke..
halfvolley11 It was convienient to stay in Cambridge as my son is the same age as my cousins boy, so it was good for him to hang about with his cousin, yes I know Islington is right next to Etobikoke, I also spent a few days with my Aunt and uncle in Port Colbaine, they have retired down there, nice part of the province,
scottishthroandthro67 no no. buddy Islington is not right next to Etobikoke. Toronto City can be divided into 3 major areas or New York's equivalent of boroughs( ( brooklyn, queens, manhattan, etc) before the amalgamation. Toronto = Toronto itself + Scarborough ( east of Toronto) + North York ( North of Toronto downtown)+ Etobikoke.( West of Toronto downtown)..
Islington is just the name of a street just like Yonge street or Dundus street.
Beautiful

se ve chido el pueblo,
In USA, This would just be an average upper middle class town
Michael Z I don't think this video does a justice. There are mega mansions
+Michael Z. Drive down Chartwell Road or Lakeshore Blvd along Lake Ontario and you'll see some impressive homes.

- Yup especially the $45 Million dollar Chelster Hall, supposed fashioned after one of Anne Boleyn's homes in the UK - Bickling Hall. Huhmm..just checked..it's up for sale for $65M if you've got the dough. www.theglobeandmail.com/real-estate/toronto/timeless-taste-beer-money-a-65-million-mansion-for-the-ages/article30899711/
lumi 2 I know the average home in the states is above average in Canada, but I’m just talking about Oakville in specific just look it up they’re some of the biggest in Ontario I don’t know about all of Canada.
2020? Oh Canada 😍👌

so how is Oakville,is it a muslim locality,what is your occupation and how much income is there for an engenear
yeah I heard about that as well.
Oakville is a pretty nice town, located along the Lake Ontario with beautiful views, festivals all year round, price of properties have a wide range, wealthy neiborhood asides Lakeshore Rd price could be up to $10million, around Bronte harbor you could have a decent house around $600,000 that live comfortably and big size, perfect place for living.
Tá fixe o video...
i love my Oakville toronto
haha well...This is my Neighbourhood! haha about 4 of these houses are my friends :p
Really I thought you were American
Oakville is generally a nice orderly suburb. They come a dime a dozen here in the U.S. Only certain towns are awarded the coveted medal of affluence; ie Greenwich CT, Palm Beach FL, Bel Air CA etc.
+Eriq Carter Stop lying lol.
I wish Pakistan and Afghanistan could be like this...clean and quite
Those views are of the rich, pretty end of Oakville. Search "Poverty in Oakville" to see how the other half live. Oakville declares itself to be so pretty, and pretends food banks and second hand clothes stores do not exist.
I agree!
Nice
Thanks
canada i like it

What is the difference between Suburb, Neighborhood and Residential Neighborhood?
All the same.
It would almost be bearable to live in Hamilton if I didn't know just how much better things are in Burlington and Oakville. Sure we can have a rivalry with Toronto and put the hard working blue collar mentality of the steel city against the bankers on Bay Street, but you can't hate Oakville or Burlington.
Would love to live in Oakville which is great for living, but to drive from there to downtown Toronto will take me 1 hour or more depending on traffic, especially in morning. It is too far man.
Imagine being a Latino living in that neighborhood.
@peter hennig how about an Indian?
I live in Oakville
Iam packing my stuff and move
:)
Firstly, I'm sorry for my bad English. I'm not a Canadian and I'm living in one of developing country in Asia. I'm very interested in Canada because unlike towns and cities in developing countries, Canada and US have friendly and green enviroment. Apart from the neat and green environment I want to know why it is so quiet in this town. I don't see many ppl walking down the road and doing activites. I'd like to know where the ppl are during the daytime? Thanks
I would say people there mostly commute to work as I can't see any businesses around there so most people would probably work in Toronto or something like that
then go to brampton nearby missisauga ...you gonna find the india city in canada
oakville probabaly has a honda car manufacturing on the way to niagara fall
They go on about affluent, but then they show northern oakville... The part of the town shown in the video is the middle class for oakville at tops. Once you get to southern Oakville, especially southeast, thats where you get houses easily reaching $5,000,000 and up
see home prices depend on many factors, fundamentally on demand vs supply. supply is not an issue here, demand is. Rich people want to live with rich, well off area for facilities, environment, status, etc. But there are benefits as well, Oakville is in South of Milton, Oakville is expensive, why? Oakville is close to Gardiner Express, which takes you downtown Toronto faster than living in Milton does using 401. Most of the richest places in Toronto are in South, North has N York, Bramtpn,etc.
Oakville is beautiful, but I just found out that, there are DOGMAN living in the wooded areas. Pls be extremely careful at night.
Keep yr pets indoors!
No Dogman, but maybe coywolves.
Providing you have a full time decent paying permanent job, it looks a really nice place to live, and bring up a family. Lovely quiet steets with bungalow type houses.
Very few bungalows now. All but the $2M ones have been torn down for mcMansions.
Damn. :(
Hop in you Crown Victoria and drive over to Philthy McNasty's!
i live there
i don't understand why suggesting canada to me??? who is there for me??? but i like the place.
The first Santa Clause movie was filmed in this town
It seems like a pretty creepy-assed place to me.
it's not creepy, it's a beautiful town and home to 184,000 people
It was beautiful. But now there are Muslims moving in. It's disgusting.
Sam Cole There will be a lot of Muslims my friend. Every city u go there are Muslims stop trying to fight it. It's 2017 for fuck sakes. Unless these Muslims done something to you, leave them alone they want to live their lives as much as you do smh
DriiZy those who don't know or understand the past are doomed to repeat it. This has played out before.
Sam Cole hey, rude. welcome to the global community. Eat your shit if you stay racist!
Very nice. but boring place. you gotta love quiet trees and birds. I ran away to Toronto. the 905 is not for me.
those are like average homes in oakville, you should've went downtown and filmed streets like Ennisclaire and Bel Air
MY WIFE IS BORN IN OAKVILLE AND I CAM 1958 ANT WIE WORGD HART TO CHANG THE PLAC
\
don't get wanna get a DWB ticket lol that really looks like a expensive area to live in
Beautiful Oakville ON? As someone who lives in Oakville ON, it really isn't that beautiful... Pretty average on a scale of beauty. I have been to many of places which totally exceed the beauty of Oakville.
mgraysonhay For example? (not being rude, i just want to know..)
mgraysonhay Its beautiful compared to some parts of Toronto's, slum areas.
Thats my cat his name is spookimo...just kiddding.
this is the definition of rich and white.
I am black and my family lives here. Or rich and black never fit into your equation?
vistaprime You don't look very black to me buddy.
So the only black people are Seal and Wesley Snipes?
Well it's obvious you aren't 100% West African. I'd assume you're somewhere in the range of 60% black and 40% something else (probably white).
I am 100% black. period.
Butyfull
thank you i hate people who think Oakville is just full of rich snobs PS i live in Oakville
yeah but the majority of people that live in Oakville are snobs
The homes shown in this video look too close together.
That's common in urban areas here.
it's not a town! there's industry, highways, and a massive population!
No match for Victoria BC. I used to live in Ontario (North York, Bayview Village) - climate sucks. It is so much nicer and better in Victoria!
you want to live with the rich people, you pay extra price for it.
I have been told that people in Oakville can be very discriminating if they think you don't look the like you belong there .. visible minorities.
lol i live so close to where this person was at the start. its nice and everything but damn is it boring there is nothing to do around here. you have to drive like 10-15min to go find something fun to do.
where do you live? at my school you would be hard pressed finding a group of friends without a few assorted 'ethnic minorities', and my neighbourhood has become like, 60% immigrants since they built a new public school a few years ago. Everybody gets along just fine, racism is foreign to me.
I love Canada 😘😍
Everywhere is racist, you can't avoid it really and personally I think Oakville is more discriminating towards youth then anything else. It is extremely expensive to live there though, when you can get houses of the same size or bigger for half the price in surrounding areas.

This time was a whole lot better before g20 took over too much now We need more caring people in this world. I say Vancouver's suburban towns are a lot better than this. This place is like exactly just as crappy as the U.S, esp. right now.
BRKsEDU / PequenoSapeca
Nope, ele mora em Hamilton.
Soulless suburban sprawl. A true design tragedy.
Everything that's wrong with the world is summed up at 3:42. People commuting an hour each way to and from their job, each in their own gas guzzling isolation pod, for the privilege to live in a manufactured landscape that tries to be part urban, part rural... but fails at both.
This development model is unsustainable. Utterly inefficient use of energy, land and materials.
Any development that relies on car culture to function reduces quality of life for all living things, including the humans that waste 2 hours of their life every day sitting on their ass surrounded by traffic.
It may be the norm, but it's insanity. Is this really the life people aspire to live?
Amen!
Why andwho is uploading this 10 years later ???? Like really who cares it's 10 years ago. Gets life people stop uploading old crap
It was uploaded 10 years ago )
