Simcoe County Real Estate & Homes for Sale
For buyers who want more land, lower density and a slower pace without giving up connections, Simcoe County makes a strong case.

About 533,000 people lived in the county, including Barrie and Orillia, at the 2021 census. Lina Fridman, Broker with RE/MAX Realtron, works with buyers and sellers moving between York Region and Simcoe.
