My home is Oakville, Mississauga has always been this no man’s land of suburbia/malls betweeen there and Toronto. I live in Mississauga now as I work is seven minutes away. It’s very convenient that way, yet I have no feeling of connectedness to it as a place. It’s just where my house is.
Maybe that’s because of lack of time in general, I’m not sure. I hope it will get better, but it’s unlikely, Mississauga has no real downtown, it’s too big and made up of lots of little towns. I’d guess I am getting a better sense of home from my smaller part of Mississauga, Meadowvale/Streetsville is ok.
Only time will tell.
