About Mimico
Mimico sits on the north shore of Lake Ontario in south Etobicoke, a 10-minute GO train ride from Union Station. Long overlooked in favour of the downtown waterfront, Mimico has undergone a quiet transformation over the past decade. New condo developments have brought an influx of young professionals, while the existing stock of mid-century apartments and detached homes has been steadily renovated.
The neighbourhood's greatest asset is its waterfront — Mimico Waterfront Park runs along the lakeshore with walking and cycling trails, picnic areas, and views of Toronto's skyline. Royal York Road is the main commercial street, with an increasing number of independent cafés, restaurants, and boutiques. The QEW provides fast car access east and west, making Mimico a practical choice for commuters heading to Mississauga or Pearson airport.
