Family-friendly streets, newer builds, strong schools, and Ottawa's largest technology employment hub, all in one fast-growing west-end community.
Kanata is Ottawa's tech corridor and one of its most family-friendly suburbs — newer construction, strong schools, and Kanata North, one of Canada's largest technology parks, all within a single community. It splits loosely into Kanata North (Beaverbrook, Kanata Lakes, Morgan's Grant) and Kanata South (Katimavik, Bridlewood, Glen Cairn, Emerald Meadows), each with its own character.
