But today's Dufferin County is also a richly textured community of communities. Weekenders from Bay Street and transplanted urban families live alongside longtime residents and farmers, a population with an unusually varied array of talents and interests. The arts thrive here, with noteworthy festivals, fairs, concerts and theatrical performances. Discover why tens of thousands of diverse-minded citizens are proud to call this quiet, largely rural southern Ontario county their home.
