Mississauga still has sizable tracts of land for both residential and commercial development and expects a further 10-15 years of solid development. As a business location, Mississauga is very cost competitive. Property taxes are among the lowest in the province and a very active development agency has kept lease rates and land prices competitive. Mississauga's electric power rates are the lowest in the Greater Toronto Area. Hydro Mississauga is continually finding ways to reduce rates and has improved power quality to the point where it is now among the most reliable anywhere in Canada.
Natural gas is readily available to local industries at about the lowest prices in North America.
The City's abundant water supply is carried by an infrastructure that was built in anticipation of future expansion. Wage rates are very competitive with other municipalities. Canada's lower inflation rate combined with the lowest overall location costs when compared to the U.S. and Europe, increases Canada's advantages as a business location. Mississauga is an ideal home for business and a great place to live. Good quality housing, first class schools and health and medical services, and lots of family-oriented sports, leisure and arts facilities are available to fulfill every interest.
