Central Erin Mills overview

Central Erin Mills is located in north Central Mississauga anchored by the Erin Mills Town Centre at Erin Mills & Eglinton just north of Hwy 403. Central Erin Mills is also home to the Credit Valley hospital just south of the Erin Mills Town Centre.

Central Erin Mills stretches north to Britannia Rd bordered by Streetsville and East Credit to the East, Churchill Meadows to the West, Meadowvale to the North, and Erin Mills to the South.

Redevelopment of the Erin Mills Town Centre and the surrounding areas has transformed this neighbourhood into a City Centre-light for North Mississauga.

It has great access to amenities and highways and has become a great option for those seeking the condo life. A big perk here is the top-rated school zone and the top-rated public and catholic high schools.

Shopping & Retail

We have to start with the Erin Mills Town Centre as this is one of two flagship malls in Mississauga. While not quite as big as its sister at Square One downtown, it has undergone a significant redevelopment in recent years.

Some locals were saddened by that, but in reality the mall was due a makeover. With redevelopment of the area came much needed housing in the form of new condos and new retail to serve those residents.

You can find pretty much anything you need now in the area from every big box store imaginable to large, international brands and everything in between.

Parks & Community Centres

I have never quite thought of the area as “green”, but once I had children I realized there is a ton to offer. A couple of great spots to check out are Sugar Maple Woods for a great walking path and Quenippenon Meadows Community Park which has something for everyone including a splash pad and leash-free dog park.

Central Erin Mills is also home to the Erin Meadows Community Centre. This is a joint-partnership with the Dufferin Peel Catholic School Board and also houses top-ranked St. Aloysius Gonzaga.

In June 2024, it underwent a huge renovation and offers amenities such as an activity studio and indoor pool. It’s also partnered with Erin Mills Library, so it’s a great and super convenient place to bring the kids.

You also have the Streetsville Memorial Park which is right next door. Great walking trails and a skating rink for the winter!

Restaurants in Central Erin Mills

The dining options in Central Erin Mills reflect the cultural diversity of Mississauga. Here are just a few:

  • Sultan Ahmet Turkish Cuisine

Ask Me About Central Erin Mills

These are the top four things people usually ask about Central Erin Mills!

Contact Me
  • what's it really like to live in Central Erin Mills?

    Central Erin Mills is one of the major neighbourhood hubs in Mississauga. It boasts the newly renovated Erin Mills Town Centre, the Credit Valley hospital, and a host of brand new and mature condo buildings to give residents a taste of big city living in a conveniently suburban setting.

  • What's the commute like from Central Erin Mills?

    Central Erin Mills is really well-located with Hwy 403 just a few minutes away. This is the main highway that runs through Mississauga and connects you to the QEW going west to Oakville and Burlington and Hwy 401 to Toronto. The Streetsville GO Train is also very close for downtown Toronto commuters. Centrally located, it’s a very good compromise for those families that work in opposite directions.

  • Why Should I Live in Central Erin Mills?

    If you’re a family looking for the best school zones in the city along with a central location close to major amenities then this is the place to be.

    And if you’re a first-time buyer looking to get into the market without having to live hours away from the action, the condos and townhomes here are a great choice!

  • why should i not live in Central Erin Mills?

    The only real downside would be most of the area is still rather car-centric. If your priority is a more urban, walkable area then you’ll likely want to aim for one of Mississauga’s ‘villages’ like Streetsville, Clarkson Village or Port Credit.

    Also, depending on where in the area you live, the closest GO station can add an extra 10-15 minutes to your commute.
