Windsor sits at the Detroit-river border and runs on the USMCA auto corridor. Stellantis Windsor Assembly, Ford Essex Engine, and the powertrain plants drive industrial-perimeter chain-link with site-security extras. Walkerville and Olde Sandwich Town keep wood and wrought-iron heritage demand. Suburban LaSalle, Tecumseh, and South Windsor new-builds carry the highest pool-ownership rate in Ontario — Lake Erie summer brings pool-enclosure orders earlier and longer than the rest of the province. University of Windsor and St. Clair College add institutional perimeter contracts. Vinyl and aluminum out-sell wood here because of hot-humid summers.
