Oakville Apartment Rentals

Start searching for Oakville apartment rentals, where you'll find a beautiful lakeside community to move to. If you are not familiar with Oakville, it is located in southern Ontario right on the lake. One of the nice things about Oakville is that it is halfway between Hamilton and Toronto. If you happen to work in either city but do not want to suffer through life in the big city, living in Oakville is perfect. 

You can start your search by checking out the local newspaper, the Oakville Beaver, which will list Oakville apartments for rent. While browsing, you might want to do some research about the different parts of the city. Oakville began as a small community way back in the 1800s and has developed into a beautiful city of almost 200,000. The city is divided into 13 distinct and separate neighborhoods each with its own characteristics. Old Oakville is the original site of the city and is located along the shore of Lake Ontario and centered around Oakville Harbor.

In the old part of the city, there are 19th century buildings that have been converted into apartments, businesses, and restaurants to name a few. There are most likely some Oakville apartment rentals available in this section of town. If you enjoy the older style of the buildings and the downtown feel of a city, Old Oakville might be for you. On the other end is the more modern area of town including College Park, which surrounds the city’s only institution of higher learning, Sheridan College. If you like a little more excitement and all that goes with living in a college town, you might want to consider this neighborhood.

There are also a number of websites that will help in your search for Oakville apartment rentals. You can search by price range, number of bedrooms, and much more. Again, you can help yourself by looking into different areas of the city. All of the neighborhoods have something to offer so it’s hard to go wrong. There is so much to do in Oakville and if that isn’t enough, you always have the ability to hop in your car and head to Toronto or Hamilton and be there in half an hour.

Once you have scoured the Oakville apartment rentals, feel comfortable knowing that no matter where you choose to live in the city, you will get to enjoy all that it has to offer. Being a lakeside community, there is, of course, much to do related to water. With two harbors, there is plenty of dock space for boats. Water sports are very popular as a result. There are also over 2,000 acres of parks that offer all kinds of trails for hiking. The outdoors are a popular refuge for city residents.

Oakville also has its own performing arts center, the Oakville Centre for the Performing Arts, which is home to both the Oakville Symphony and the Oakville Ballet Company. There are numerous events throughout the year that attract hundreds of thousands of people. The Downtown Jazz Festival and the Waterfront Festival are two such events. One thing is true - if you live in Oakville, you will have plenty to do.
