Area Guide
Welcome to Barrie, ON, a lakeside city where urban spirit meets scenic charm. Nestled at the head of Kempenfelt Bay on Lake Simcoe, around 90 kilometres north of Toronto, Barrie blends the conveniences of city life with a refreshing waterfront charm.
Barrie boasts rich roots dating back to its early 19th century beginnings as a War of 1812 supply depot and trading outpost. Over time, residents have come to enjoy a balanced cityscape: the shoreline invites watersports and strolls along the bay, while inland areas buzz with parks, shops, and cultural energy. The economy thrives on diversity, with health, education, IT, and manufacturing as notable pillars, and excellent transit links via Highway 400 and GO Transit anchoring its connection to the Greater Golden Horseshoe.
Life here pulses through distinctive neighbourhoods that each carry their own story. The historic district of Allandale, once a railway town, entices with heritage architecture, self-guided walking tours, and handy proximity to nightlife and shops. Sunnidale Park provides the city’s largest green refuge, complete with walking trails, a community garden, arboretum, playground, and a historic ravine. On the southern edge, the growing suburbs appeal to commuters: they're convenient for the Parkway, expanding GO access, and burgeoning shopping hubs. Whether you're drawn to historic charm, scenic parks, or new development, Barrie's neighbourhoods offer something vivid for everyone.
