West Woodbridge

Located near the western edge of Vaughan, Greater West Woodbridge is actually made up of two smaller neighbourhoods, West Woodbridge proper and Vaughan Grove. While these communities share a lot of similarities (and perks), there are a few distinct differences too. 

Why We Love West Woodbridge

Relaxed and suburban, life in West Woodbridge is all about convenience. With all the essential amenities (and more) located close by, running errands, shopping, or even grabbing a bite to eat is easier than ever. 

While you hardly need to leave the neighbourhood, West Woodbridge’s proximity to major highways like the 400, 407, and 427, makes commuting and travelling around the Greater Toronto Area a breeze. Residents also have access to the TTC, with the Vaughan Metropolitan Centre Subway Station only a short drive away. 

Tucked just below West Woodbridge, Vaughan Grove is a smaller, primarily residential enclave. However, what the community lacks in population size, it makes up for in lush parkland and green spaces. In addition to several outdoor sports facilities, Vaughan Grove is home to a densely forested recreation area along the winding Humber River Recreation Trail, making it perfect for nature lovers.
