Mississauga has a density of 2467 people per square kilometer. Mississauga neighbourhoods look like this-

That isn't apartment building density, but that's about as dense as single family homes can get.

Mississauga had to raise property taxes somewhat -- still extremely competitive -- as a revenue source dried up. But those new neighbourhoods all easily pay for themselves in property taxes. Nonetheless, loads of really silly narrative comes out of Toronto writers, still foreboding this dire scenario that they've been pitching for well over a decade. It's a bit farcical at this point.
