Transportation
No matter the mode of transportation, it is simple to get around in Dixie. This part of Mississauga is reasonably conducive to walking; most day-to-day needs are easy to carry out without the use of a vehicle, and there are also a good number of businesses close by. In contrast, Dixie is not especially cycling-friendly as cyclists are faced with a considerable amount of hills, and there are a limited number of bike lanes. With Dixie Station on the Milton Line, and a few nearby bus lines, the public transit network in Dixie is quite practical. Dixie is also very car friendly. Many houses for sale are a reasonably short drive from the closest highway, and it is very easy to come across a place to park.

Concerning education, parents and their schoolchildren will welcome that wherever their house is located in Dixie, primary schools and daycares are close by.
