Owen Sound is known for its beautiful scenery. It is located on the shores of Georgian Bay, and it has a lot of green space and parks. The city also has a vibrant arts scene, with many galleries and theatres.
When you ask locals what they love most about this scenic city they'll likely say Georgian Bay, Kelso Beach, Harrison Park, Inglis Falls and our Magnificent Harbour.
Outside of our historic downtown, our tree-lined streets and idyllic community you'll find a modern society with a modern healthcare system. The City of Owen Sound is focused on modern technology, strong economic development and community development.
The beautiful city of Owen Sound is also close to Toronto, which makes it a convenient place to live if you work in the big city but want to avoid living there yourself.
Over the past several years we have seen a major influx of Torontonians who are buying homes and cottages with the goal to eventually retire in the 'scenic city'.
The pros of living in Owen Sound include its friendly people, its scenic location, and its convenience to Toronto. We also have a low cost of living compared to other cities in Southern Ontario.
With a focus on cutting-edge technology including upgrades to the internet and infrastructure, residents can enjoy a more laid-back lifestyle while still being named among the more ambitious cities in Ontario.
Some of the services provided in the City of Owen Sound are a strong police force, fire services, and a resilient industrial workforce. This city with its beautiful community really is a perfect balance.
Winter can be a bit harsh. We usually get about 145 cm of snow each year. I estimate that we're a degree or three colder than the GTA. IMO, if it's going to be cold, might as well have snow! But snow isn't for everyone.
One thing is for certain is that we know how to move the snow! In the deep of winter, our roads function properly as businesses and residents go about their busy lives.
We're a Southwestern Ontario City with a lot to offer to retirees. In addition to our modern healthcare system, and a short half hours drive to almost anything you can imagine. You won't run out of ideas for day trips in and around the City of Owen Sound.
So is Owen Sound a nice place to live? It depends on what you're looking for. If you're looking for a friendly community with beautiful scenery, then yes, Owen Sound is definitely a great place to live. Either way, you'll want to come for a visit! We have a colourful history and historic charm which you can discover at our local Grey Roots Museum.
A city motto where culture and lifestyle are #1? Yes, Please!

The photo here is of the Georgian Shores Marina. Located right beside Kelso Beach, this marina hosts the annual Salmon Spectacular. Georgian Bay is a stunning body of water that many locals enjoy using.
Georgian Bay has several beaches for playing, docks for fishing, areas for sitting and viewing, and of course places to launch your boat, canoe or paddleboard!
Your heart is racing, and before you can even finish your thought, you say with a near shout, 1.5 Million! Your cheeks almost immediately go flush, and you keep your eyes locked on the auctioneer.
The crowd falls silent as they turn their attention toward you. Some murmers can be heard... '900 to 1.5? Is he crazy? It's over'
It seems like an eternity of silence before you hear the auctioneer again who tries to stir up more action... Going Once, Going Twice... SOLD!
To your amazement, you win the bid on the old mansion!
After the auctioneer's gavel falls, you jump with joy, realizing you are now the proud owner of the Old Mansion on 13th. You are surrounded by well-wishers who congratulate you on your successful bid. A sense of excitement fills the the yard as everyone celebrates your win.
Meanwhile, some of the losing buyers are not so thrilled. They leave the property in a fit, grumbling about the high cost of the property and how they were outbid. Despite their disappointment, you are too elated to notice and instead focus on your new acquisition.
The celebration continues late into the night, with everyone toasting to your success and discussing the exciting future ahead for the Old Mansion. You are excited and eager to begin the next chapter of your life in Owen Sound.
