Meadowvale Homes Cost 26% Less Than the Mississauga Average — Here's the Full Picture
One of Canada's first master-planned communities is still one of Mississauga's best value plays: an average home price near $905,000, about 26% below the city-wide figure, plus its own GO station on the Milton line. For families and commuters priced out of the south end, the math starts here.
About Meadowvale
Meadowvale, in Mississauga's northwest, was built in the 1970s as one of Canada's first fully master-planned communities — designed around interconnected parks, two man-made lakes (Aquitaine and Wabukayne), schools, and the Meadowvale Town Centre rather than assembled piecemeal. That planning legacy is exactly what makes it a value neighbourhood today: abundant townhouse and mid-density stock, mature tree cover, and its own GO station keep entry prices well below the south-end waterfront communities.
The average listing price sits near $905,000 — roughly 26% below the Mississauga average — with recent MLS sale data closer to $848,000. Townhouses average around $740,000 and condos around $453,000, giving first-time buyers and downsizers genuine entry points that barely exist in Port Credit or Lorne Park. Homes move in a median of about 26 days. For renters, a one-bedroom runs roughly $2,150–$2,360/month, at or slightly below the citywide median.
