The Brampton East neighbourhood is east as it relates to Downtown Brampton, which is bordered by Brampton North, East, South, and West. This well-established, mature area includes Eldomar Heights and Peel Village subdivisions, which were developed in the late 1950s and the 1960s. The neighbourhood is a mix of residential, industrial and commercial areas. Housing is a mix of single detached homes, semi-detached homes, townhomes, low-rise and high-rise apartments. The Etobicoke Creek, parklands, and a trail form part of this neighbourhood's western boundary.
