Whatever your lifestyle or family requires, Ingersoll can deliver with as wide a range of facilities as larger towns in Ontario offer! From open spaces, trails and parks, to emergency services, unique shops, restaurants and community centres, you can find all you need and more within five minutes of your front door. What's more, it’s lovely to be able to walk right across town through green spaces, and leave the car behind!
Let's start with those open spaces! With no less than twelve public parks, seven of which are linked by a walking trail, you can stroll right across town through a leafy, tree-lined traffic-free route. (You'll find plenty of parking in Ingersoll close to the parks.) Our parks also serve as venues to the many festivals and celebrations that take place in Ingersoll every year, including the Canterbury Folk Festival, and Pumpkin Fest at the Ingersoll Cheese & Agricultural Museum
You'll find we're big on community here, so if you buy your new home in Ingersoll, it won't take long for you to feel at home. You can take a pottery class or explore local arts and crafts at the Creative Arts Centre or see a show at the Ingersoll Theatre of Performing Arts or even be in one! You can get fit by taking a joga class, swimming, or using the exercise equipment at the Victoria Park Community Centre. Pick up a book from the Public Library or drop the kids off at our award-winning, Fusion Youth Activity and Technology Centre to enjoy their many creative and innovative programs! And, you're always welcome to come into Ingersoll Town Hall, whether you need an application form, or just some friendly advice or information on the town!
Your local police, ambulance and fire services are all based in Ingersoll and are available 24/7, so they can respond quickly when you need them most, while the Alexandra Hospital has served our community for over 100 years. The Town of Ingersoll believes in thinking ahead to protect all of its residents, so the town has an Emergency Management Program to cover a range of situations that might affect the town.
