A truly diverse community, Waterloo West is home to University of Waterloo and Laurier University, and includes a mix of established family-friendly neighbourhoods, new subdivisions, and executive enclaves.

There are plenty of trails, parks, fields, and more to explore for those who enjoy the outdoors.

The Laurel Creek runs close to this community, providing beach access to the area residents. Nature enthusiasts will love living next to Laurel Creek Conservation Area where you can hike, swim, camp, canoe, or fish throughout the expansive greenspace. The Beechwood community is close to essential amenities and Downtown Waterloo, while also featuring convenient amenities within the neighbourhood including six public pools, tennis courts, parks, skating rinks, and more.
