Southdale sits to the south of Fermor Ave, extending to Bishop Grandin Blvd. It is bordered to the west by a set of railroad tracks behind Lakewood Blvd, and to the east by Lagimodiere Blvd. The northeast corner excludes the grounds of the Royal Canadian Mint, which is in its own neighbourhood. There are a bundle of city parks scattered throughout the neighbourhood, along with the Southdale Community Centre.
