Claireville is an unincorporated community in Toronto, and Brampton, Ontario, Canada. It is bounded by Finch Avenue to the west and south, Albion Road to the east, and Steeles Avenue to the North. The former hamlet of Ebenezer, Brampton is found within Clairville.
The name Claireville originates from a nearby historical village located in Toronto, however it is now mainly associated with the Claireville Conservation Area prominent in the region, which is one of the largest natural regions in the Greater Toronto Area. Until the early 2000s the region was largely dominated by agricultural lands with small pockets of industrial and estate residential areas. However, subdivisions are currently being developed throughout the area north of Queen Street East.
