About City
Waterloo is one of Canada's most remarkable cities — a mid-sized community that punches far above its weight in terms of innovation, education, and quality of life. Home to the University of Waterloo, one of the world's top engineering and technology schools, and Wilfrid Laurier University, the city attracts talent from across the globe and has earned a reputation as Canada's tech capital outside of Toronto. The Uptown Waterloo corridor is a vibrant hub of independent restaurants, patios, and boutiques anchored by Waterloo Public Square and connected via the ION light rail. Families love Waterloo for its excellent school system, abundant parks, and community safety, while investors and first-time buyers are drawn by the steady demand driven by the city's ever-growing student and professional population.
