Bradford West Gwillimbury, a town in south-central Ontario, in the County of Simcoe in the Toronto Census Metropolitan Area〔http://stds.statcan.gc.ca/sgc-cgt/2006/ss-rs2-fin-eng.asp?criteria=35535〕 on the Holland River. West Gwillimbury takes its name from the family of Elizabeth Simcoe, née ''Gwillim''. The former Town of Bradford was amalgamated with portions of the former Townships of West Gwillimbury and Tecumseth to become the Town of Bradford West Gwillimbury on January 1, 1991.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Living Here )〕 The town lies within three telephone area codes: 905, 705 and 289 (only used by mobile phones). Telephone numbers begin with numerous prefixes, including: 456, 458, 551, 775, 778, 724, 729, and 939. Holland Marsh, a region of #9 humus soil, is located partly in Bradford West-Gwillimbury. The town, along with the Township of King is the governing body responsible for the maintenance of the drainage system of this source of Canada's produce supply. In 2007 a Holland Marsh Drainage System Joint Municipal Board was created in response to a crisis of maintenance of the Holland Marsh Drainage System. The Holland River flows through the middle of the southernmost Holland Marsh polder and eventually flows out to Lake Simcoe. Geographically, the area is north of the Oak Ridges Moraine. ==Communities== Bradford West Gwillimbury consists of the town of Bradford and the former Township of West Gwillimbury, and includes the communities of Bond Head, Coulson's Hill,〔(Cottrell Lake - Courtland ), GeoNames Index, Ontario Terminology〕 Deerhurst, Dunkerron, Green Valley, Newton Robinson and Pinkerton. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bradford West Gwillimbury」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
