The neighbourhood of Columbia is part of the city of Waterloo, Ontario, which is located in the Kitchener - Cambridge - Waterloo metropolitan area.

Transportation

This area will please homeowners that value a variety of methods of transportation. Commuting by public transit is convenient in this area. For instance, rapid transit stations, such as University Of Waterloo Station and Research & Technology Station on the 301 | Ion, are not particularly far from most residences in the neighbourhood. Property owners are served by a few bus lines, and bus stops are typically nearby. Columbia is also a fairly pleasant part of Waterloo for pedestrians; most daily needs are convenient to meet by walking. It is sometimes difficult to travel by bicycle in Columbia because there are a good number of slopes for cyclists to brave, and the cycling network is somewhat poor.

It is also a rather short distance to a good choice of clothing stores. With respect to education, parents and their kids will welcome that no matter where their home is located in Columbia, daycares and schools are nearby.

Character

People who prefer a slower-paced ambience will enjoy Columbia. This part of the city is reasonably quiet, as the streets are quite calm - although that is not the case closer to the railway line. Finally, although Columbia is not home to any parks, green spaces are very well-spread out in nearby neighbourhoods, resulting in them being easy to access from the majority of locations within the neighbourhood.

Housing

Renters occupy around 85% of the units in Columbia whereas the remainder are occupied by owners. In this neighbourhood, roughly 45% of dwellings are large apartment buildings, but small apartment buildings are also present in the housing stock. About 40% of properties in this part of Waterloo were built in the 1960s and 1970s, while many of the remaining buildings were constructed pre-1960 and in the 1980s. This part of the city has a good choice of unit sizes, ranging from lofts to four or more bedrooms.
