URBAN LIVING WITH SMALL TOWN CHARM
Union Village delivers a modern lifestyle without compromise. The master-planned community sits next to the charming heritage village of Unionville, and within the thriving metropolis of Markham. Residents will join one of the fastest growing municipalities in Ontario and the most ethnically diverse community in Canada. This is one of the only places where historic fairs and thriving business centres overlap.
It’s a place where, in a population of 350,000+, you’ll still meet familiar faces when you walk down the street. It’s social connection and access to infrastructure in one amazing package. The best of all worlds.
THE THRIVING CITY OF MARKHAM
Union Village sits within Markham, Canada’s 16th largest city, packed with an eclectic mix of old and new. Enjoy a vibrant downtown with urban amenities and cultural attractions that include award-winning community centres and libraries, top-performing schools, prestigious neighbourhoods, exciting events, and an array of retail, restaurants, and entertainment.
The Markham Museum tells the story of the city’s history and growth.
The Flato Markham Theatre hosts over 300 performances each season, everything from operas to odes to David Bowie.
This city is home to over 200 parks and Markham’s Green Spine, connecting Rouge Park, the Milne Dam Conservation area, Mount Joy Lake Park, and Toogood Pond Park.
Markham is one of a handful of “majority-minority” cities in the country, where a plethora of diverse ethnic groups combine to create an incredible tapestry of cultures. It’s no wonder that it’s the ideal place to welcome new experiences and find the things that feel like home.
