Applewood is located in south Mississauga. This is one of Mississauga’s older neighbourhoods having been planned as a subdivision in the 1950s. This area is conveniently situated in south east Mississauga, just a few minutes from the City of Toronto and the Mississauga City Centre. The boundaries are Cawthra on the west to Etobicoke Creek on the east, while the Queen Elizabeth Way forms the south border and Burnhamthorpe Road the north border. The greater Applewood area consists of the Applewood Acres community south of The Queensway and Applewood Heights and Applewood Hills north of Dundas Street. These communities are separated by an industrial park.
