Hastings County Community Profile
On behalf of Hastings County and its residents, I wish to extend a warm welcome. Our County is vibrant with a rich and colourful history and a future full of potential. A recent survey of International and Canadian tourists has even uncovered that Hastings County is among the top 15 places visited in Ontario! This Community Profile was created to provide our business community, prospective investors and developers with current information on our region. It provides a report of our County’s vital statistics as they relate to demographics, economic base, education, lifestyle and our government activity. I am confident that the information contained within these pages will be of great benefit to you. Our Profile is updated annually to ensure that the most current statistics are available. Should you have any questions about the information provided, our economic development staff within the Planning & Development Department would be more than pleased to assist. Sincerely, Rick Phillips, Warden Hastings County Community Profile 2 www.investinhastings.ca Introduction....................................................................................................4 Map of Hastings County.................................................................................5 General Statistics........................................................................................6 Census Populations.......................................................................................6 Age Characteristics........................................................................................7 Education Characteristics..............................................................................8 Average Home Prices....................................................................................9 Employment.............................................................................................. 10 Major Employers..........................................................................................10 Wage Rates by Occupation.........................................................................11 Tax Information..........................................................................................12 Building and Development Charges........................................................15 Utilities........................................................................................................24 Water and Sewer Rates...............................................................................24 Electricity Rates...........................................................................................27 Natural Gas Rates.......................................................................................28 Transportation Information.......................................................................29 Community Information............................................................................33 Education.....................................................................................................33 Financial Institutions....................................................................................33 Accommodations.........................................................................................34 Recreation...................................................................................................35 Contact Information.....................................................................................38 General Contacts.........................................................................................38 Service Clubs...............................................................................................39 County and Townships.................................................................................40 Elected Officials...........................................................................................41 Family Physician Recruitment..................................................................42 Hastings County Community Profile 3 www.investinhastings.ca Hastings County commands a unique and enviable position in the Province of Ontario. You can find yourself just seconds to work and minutes to the cottage. A sound industrial/commercial base, revitalized downtowns and the legacy of a strong work force has made Hastings County the viable County that it is today. Hastings County is the second largest County in Ontario with 14 lower-tier municipalities. These communities offer The Best of Both Worlds. Whether you want to be right in the centre of town or out on the lake, Hastings offers a great alternative to the large metropolitan city. In an era when access to broadband and communications breaks down the barriers, no longer does the large city have the advantage over the small regional community. With the area of 1,473,861 acres served by Canada’s largest toll-free Highway 401, the Trans Canada Highway #7 and Highways 62, 37, and 28, the County offers excellent road accessibility. You can be in the Greater Toronto Area in less than 2 hours! The County offers a low cost of living and marvellous educational facilities. Loyalist College (Canada’s outstanding small college) provides numerous training programs in support of local businesses and industries. As well, both Trent and Queen’s Universities are within commuting distance. Hastings County is the place to invest and expand your business!
