Life in the Nation's Capital
Ideal For
Ottawa is perfect for you if you’re looking to experience urban living, dining, culture, and shopping blended with green space, parks, and room to breathe.
Best Features
Living in the Nation’s Capital has its benefits. Take a stroll in the Byward Market, skate on the Rideau Canal, or visit a trendy neighbourhood for some international cuisine.
Considerations
Ottawa provides the urban experience on a smaller scale. If you’re used to more cosmopolitan cities like Montreal or Toronto, life in Ottawa may feel a little slower-paced.
History
The region was first home to Indigenous Peoples who lived, met, and traded here. The city’s name is derived from the Algonquin word “Odawa” which means “traders.” Ottawa became the functional legislative capital of Canada in 1866 and was officially made the capital with Confederation in 1867.
