Port Credit is Mississauga’s prime neighbourhood for waterfront properties and lakeside residential communities. Since the land is scarce, Port Credit is now mainly a heritage conservation district and the lake is used for social activities such as boating, and public recreational enjoyment. You can also walk along Lakeshore and experience the charming shops, restaurants and amenities at every corner. Port Credit holds the title for being the real waterfront downtown of Mississauga, while the Square One area is a more prevalent area to many.
We track years of completed developments, we then look at potential new developments and take in consideration things like appeal (demand) and infrastructure (updates).
