Where is Byron?
Proximity of Byron to the city of London
Byron is a neighbourhood west of London, Ontario, with a population of 15,000. Dating back to the 1800s, this community has wonderful charm and is close proximity to picturesque parks.
Life in Byron
Byron has a tight-knit, small town feel. Comprised of mostly single family detached homes, Byron has seen a boom in the past couple years, with its recent addition of Condos on Commissioners Road West.
Byron has become a popular community for families to call home over the past decade, with some of London's top rated schools, excellent sports facilities and fields, as well as a brand new outdoor pool/aquatic park. With the increase in demand to move into the community from more and more people, home values have grown quickly.
Places & Spaces
Byron has many wonderful places and spaces to offer, but perhaps one of the most notable is the gorgeous Springbank Park, which runs along the Thames River. There are many paths to explore, making it an attractive spot for biking, jogging, and dog-walking alike. You’ll find playgrounds, benches, and the soothing sound of the river at Springbank. Right next door to the park, you’ll find the Civic Garden Complex, home to the Garden Club of London and the Friends of the London Civic Garden Complex. An excellent way to get involved in the community!
If you're looking to get off the beaten path a little bit more, the almost secret Warbler Woods is an excellent spot to get away from the feel of the city and more connected with nature. Tucked along the Western border of Byron, this is a great spot to unwind on a Sunday afternoon or take the family for a hike.

Byron is a wonderful community with a small town feel, with all of the nearby advantages of the city. If you’re considering a move, this community is worth some serious consideration.
