We Love Burlington, the #1 City in Canada!

At the Rocca Sisters Team, we are incredibly proud of the communities we serve. It came as no surprise to us that three of these communities ranked as the top five cities. Our hometown of Burlington took the highest honour as the #1 community in Canada!

Annual Rankings Find Burlington at #1

The annual ranking compiled by Maclean’s gathered data on 415 communities across the country. The cities were ranked after receiving points based on the following 10 categories: wealth and economy, affordability, health, weather, crime, commute, taxes, demographics, culture and community, and amenities. You can view the entire list, as well as the details of each entry here

Besides being the #1 city, Burlington also took the top spot as the best place to raise a family.

“Those of us who live in Burlington have always known our city is the best in Canada, the best in the world. Our ‘secret sauce’ is a unique blend of community assets, natural environment, and great citizens. We have outstanding community centres, rinks, pools, museums, parks and festivals; we’re book-ended by natural environment, from our downtown waterfront park and sand beach to the Niagara Escarpment World Biosphere Reserve, and by great people who look out for each other and give back to our community,”said Burlington Mayor Marianne Meed Ward in a news release.

Grimsby and Oakville Take Top Five Spots

Grimsby, another of our fabulous communities, took the #2 spot in Canada and beautiful Oakville came in at a very robust #4.

We are so grateful that the #1 city in Canada has made us their #1 real estate agents*. To show our appreciation, we are committed to giving back to this great community through events, initiatives, and sponsorships. Please join us on Sunday, August 18, 2019 at Spencer Smith Park as we sponsor the Burlington Children’s Festival!

From all of us at the Rocca Sisters Team, congratulations to Burlington, Grimsby and Oakville for your high achievement!
