Sail away from your backyard or just walk through the natural healthy environment that surrounds our community.

This is an area of steady growth, with a varied commercial mix, from traditional agriculture, retail, tourism and services to an expanding number of knowledge-based technology businesses.

Quality of Life:
Quality of life is what attracts people to live in Brighton. You can live in a small town, on rolling farm land, or in truly natural areas, the choice is yours. Our stress free life style has attracted many of those who work in the nearby Greater Toronto Area.

Choose from a home built in the 1800s, or one built this year. Shop at a rural general store, shop the main street of the town, or visit a nearby shopping mall.

Within our boundaries are facilities for most every sport and pastime. Clean air and clean water - a great place to relax and do nothing and yet there is so much to do, no matter what your interests.
