Ford is well served by green space, with several parks tucked throughout the neighbourhood.

Aspen Forest Park offers a playground and two soccer fields. Arkendo Park, Charnwood Park, Deer Run Park, Dunvegan Park, and Joshua Valley Park round out the neighbourhood's park system.

The south section of the Joshua's Creek Trail follows the creek from Arkendo Park up toward Brookmill Road, giving you a quiet, tree-lined path for walking or running.

For organized sport and recreation, Maple Grove Arena hosts public skating, hockey programs, and rentals. Canlan Sports offers leagues and instructional programs for kids and adults.

South of Lakeshore Road is where Ford earns its reputation.

Lakeshore Road East was once known as Millionaires' Row, and while the original estates are gone, the character remains. Today's homes here range from renovated originals to newly built lakefront estates, many commanding prices well into the eight figures.

Carrington Promenade offers a peaceful stretch along the water, ideal for a walk, a run, or just taking in the view of Lake Ontario.

North of Lakeshore Road, you'll find more accessible pricing without losing the neighbourhood's tree-lined, established feel.
