About Northridge

Northridge sits in northeast London, bordered by the North Thames River and the Kilally Meadows Environmentally Significant Area, with Masonville Mall a short drive to the west. The land along the river carries deep history — archaeological evidence shows Indigenous activity in the area dating back roughly two thousand years, on the traditional territory of the Anishinaabek, Haudenosaunee, Lūnaapéewak, and Attawandaron peoples. The neighbourhood itself developed through the 1960s and 1970s, with newer infill construction added more recently along Tennent Avenue.

Families are drawn to Northridge for its in-neighbourhood schools — Northridge Public School, St. Mark Catholic Elementary, and A.B. Lucas Secondary School — as well as its direct trail access, mature lots, and consistently strong performance in London Ontario real estate.
