Come and Discover...

Windsor, Ontario, Canada's southernmost destination that shares the same latitude as Rome, Italy; Napa Valley, California; and Barcelona, Spain. Residents and visitors alike enjoy the miles of spectacular waterfront parkland that invites walking, cycling or rollerblading. Living directly across the border from Detroit, Michigan also places you on a cosmopolitan stage where arts, culture, big-league sports and entertainment are just moments away. Best of all, you can enjoy access to all these big-city advantages while living in the relative tranquility (and low costs) of a much smaller, friendlier community. Commute times are typically 10 - 15 minutes, even from near suburbs. With some 109 different ethnic cultures represented, Windsor is also a place where you'll find a broad range of religious practices, cultural activities, and cuisine. With a reputation for warm and welcoming hospitality, we are a great community to live in and to raise a family.
