Simcoe, is nestled in the middle of Norfolk County within driving distance to the GTA and within a shorter drive to the Cities of Brantford, Hamilton and Kitchener-Waterloo, to name a few.

The Town itself is an attractive community having modern day facilities including many retail stores, banks and restaurants in addition to regularly sought after services such as Service Ontario and Service Offices, Health and Social Services and houses the . In addition, the Town offers an array of recreational facilities for the young at heart and is also home to the Norfolk County Fair Grounds.

Previous studies have indicated that Norfolk County like many other tertiary markets has an aging population. This makes the town a favorable location to attract retirement and life style type housing developments. It should be noted that rural populations are also facing an aging demographic and retirees and pre-retirees are migrating to the smaller towns for their retirement years. Almost 60% of the County’s population are now aged 55 and older.

Current migration to the area indicates that many City residents are also seeking a lifestyle change to “small town Ontario” communities, particularly to areas like Simcoe and Port . The County offers many special amenities including lakeside resort areas, more moderate climates and a strategic location for an easy commute to and from all major cities in central and south western Ontario. The shore and beaches of are a very short drive away.

Many of today’s active retirees and pre-retirees are seeking a slower pace of life and an alternate style of living at an affordable price. Simcoe offers such benefits.

The preferences of both provincial and federal governments is toward the concept of aging in place housing types versus institutional living for seniors. This concept bodes well for the development of the subject site, especially given its proximity to Norview Lodge Long Term Care Facility with its available service providers and in-home services adjacent to the property. The Opportunity
