Brampton Information ...
Brampton is one of Canada’s largest and fastest growing cities. The City of Brampton takes immense pride in its diverse community, culture and heritage. Consumer growth and commercial development have transformed what was primarily a rural area 150 years ago into a dynamic community where history mingles with modern infrastructure, lush green landscapes, an extensive sport and recreation network and a spirited arts community. As Canada’s Flower City, Brampton showcases some of the most interesting and beautiful flowerbeds and floral displays in the province. In 2008, Brampton was the International award winner in the prestigious Communities in Bloom Competition. We were honoured to receive the highest score in recognition of our innovative work to create a beautiful living landscape. Not only a beautiful city, Brampton has been recognized as a global leader in community safety, being the first municipality in the Greater Toronto Area, and one of only 10 in North America, to be designated as an International Safe Community by the World Health Organization. With a current population of more than 450,000 people, Brampton’s young and diverse multicultural mosaic represents more than 175 distinct ethnic backgrounds. Our diversity is mirrored in an eclectic mix of restaurants and boutiques, festivals, performing and visual arts, museums, outstanding educational institutions, and abundant recreational opportunities facilitated by over 6,000 acres of parkland and open space. For visitors to Brampton, recreational play, cultural experiences and community festivals are never far away. Come experience Everything Brampton! 
Time to Move >Empty Nests
When their last child is married or graduates from college, many couples feel the urge to give up yard work, sell their homes, and become sophisticated city dwellers. They may consider a condominium or a home near theaters, restaurants, museums and other in-town excitement.
Although city living has many rewards, this type of move represents a major change in lifestyle. You will be relieved of a lot of maintenance chores, and you will be close to many activities that not available in the suburbs. However, some things that you take for granted, like a parking place, may not be readily available in a city!
Before you make a commitment to a condominium, talk to the people who live there. Like suburban developments, town house and condo developments often have covenants and owners' association restrictions which limit what you can do with your home. A professional real estate agent can get you the answers to any questions you may have about this important move.
