Vaughan is one of Canada's fastest growing cities. Home to more than 340,000 people, its globally competitive economy includes more than 19,000 businesses, employing more than 236,000 individuals. Vaughan traces its roots back to the historic communities of Concord, Kleinburg, Maple, Thornhill and Woodbridge. This forward-looking municipality is in the heart of York Region. Vaughan's emerging downtown – the Vaughan Metropolitan Centre – and Canada's first smart hospital – the Cortellucci Vaughan Hospital – as well as the 900-acre North Maple Regional Park continue to generate momentum and excitement. Vaughan's promising future is guided by the 2018-2022 Term of Council Service Excellence Strategic Plan.
