Close Enough to Toronto Without Feeling Crowded

Visiting Summit Park can give you a taste of what the region offers but it won’t tell you exactly what
it’s like living in this community of more than 3,000 Canadians. While the Ontario location isn’t as famous as its neighbor Toronto, it’s just a 45-minute drive south for one of the nicest communities in the province.

The region used to be nothing but farmland but in recent years, there’s been a great deal of development that has allowed Summit Park master-planned community to reach its full potential. It’s one of the best places to live in Hamilton because it’s rich with lush amenities.

Part of that is because the region is teeming with the number of shopping locations, banks, public transit, dining, and entertainment options you’d expect in the city. On top of that, there are enough medical professionals around to care for the needs of family members at every age and stage of life.
