About the city

The City of St. Catharines is a vibrant city with small town qualities offering excellent opportunities to both residents and tourists. With a population of 132,000, the City is strategically located in the heart of the Niagara Peninsula and offers excellent access to the major markets of both Canada and the United States.

St. Catharines, known as "The Garden City", enjoys a unique microclimate because of the moderating influence of Lake Erie, Lake Ontario and the sheltering effect of the Niagara Escarpment. St. Catharines is a city that unites its vibrant future with its rich past boasting over 1,000 acres of parks and trails, including the scenic Welland Canal, encouraging residents to develop a healthy and active lifestyle.
