But downsizing isn’t just about square footage, it’s about lifestyle. Choosing the right neighbourhood can make all the difference in how you enjoy this next chapter. Whether you’re retiring, becoming an empty nester, or just looking to simplify, here’s what to look for in a community-oriented neighbourhood and some of Guelph’s best spots to find it.
