About Harrison

Taking a drive along the tree-lined streets, looking at the houses that sit on well-manicured lawns is a great way to get familiar with the community. This neighbourhood is great for commuters thanks to its proximity to the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) and other parts of Milton. The major thoroughfares in the region include Derry and Tremaine Roads. Getting to and from the GTA can happen all along Highway 401, which is a short drive north of the neighbourhood.

Since this community was designed with growing families in mind, it makes sense that educational institutions were part of the plan. Children of all ages can be served at Lumen Christi Catholic Elementary School, P. L. Robertson Public School or Escarpment View Public School. Once class is done and the workday has come to an end, families can head to one of the many outdoor areas to unwind.

If tennis is your sport there are courts available to work on your swing. Fitness is quite important for the health and wellbeing of the community, which is why there is a dedicated fitness centre and jogging track available in addition to the many pools.
