Living in Shades Mills

Shades Mills sits inside Cambridge in Waterloo and Wellington, and it is anchored by its main strip, where shops sit at street level and homes start just behind them. Because Cambridge is a smaller Ontario town where the main street still does most of the work, buying or renting in Shades Mills usually comes down to how much space you need and how far you're willing to travel.
