Move to Minto

The Town of Minto is located in the north-western boundary of Wellington County, and is composed of the former Towns of Harriston and Palmerston, the former Village of Clifford, and surrounding rural area of the former Minto Township. 

When you move to Minto, you’re only an hourfrom the major centres of southern Ontario –including Kitchener-Waterloo and Guelph – and popular recreational areas along the eastern shore of Lake Huron and southern Georgian Bay. 

An hour from the city, and an hour to the beach. What more could you ask for?

Home is belonging. Are you ready to call Minto home?

Day In The Life 

The Workforce Planning board of Waterloo Wellington Dufferin along with partners Career Education Council, Business & Education Partnership of Waterloo Region and The Town of Minto are proud to share our Day in The Life video series! An Employment Ontario Project funded in part by the Government of Canada and the Government of Ontario.

This video series will highlight the daily life of key in-demand occupations to help provide real-time and real-life insights to potential job seekers. Given that employers are noticing job seekers get hired, then tend to quit because of the lack of awareness or understanding of job duties and responsibilities, this project will provide clarity and insights into selected occupations by offering an actual visual footage of the occupations and tasks! This series additionally covers roles in which the worker can achieve with little to no off the job training after high school.

Our past can help us build our future.

The Minto Expatriate Program is an initiative that aims to bring back community expatriates who grew up in Minto and moved away for school, work, or any other reason. The program is designed to reach out to these expatriates and remind them of the benefits of living in Minto, so that they will be inspired to ‘repatriate’.

These benefits include access to family and friends, lower cost of living, safety, sense of community, quality of life, and many others.

The Minto Expatriate Program reaches expatriates through this website, social media, direct mail from family and friends, and events. The Town of Minto is working with partners to provide the best career, business, and real estate opportunities to make the transition home as easy as possible.
