Around Town

Windsor Ontario lies directly across the Detroit River from Detroit, Michigan. Encompassing 120 square kilometres, or 46 square miles, Windsor is home to over 208,000 people. Its residents are predominantly English speaking, but Windsor is truly a multicultural city, playing host to people from all over the world.

The climate in the Windsor area lends itself to a vibrant and picturesque environment. The natural beauty is enhanced by the city being bordered by water on three sides. Having the most southerly location in Canada (Windsor is similar to Madrid, Spain in latitude) doesn"t hurt either. Convenient access draws in approximately 9 million visitors annually, making Windsor the country"s busiest port. Much of the nearly $1 billion dollars generated through trade and tourism comes in the form of US dollars through Michigan, Ontario"s largest trading partner. Its unique location on the southwestern tip of Ontario puts 100 million Canadian and American citizens within 800 kilometres (500 miles) of city limits
