Meadowvale may not be in the area that is worst affected by Pearson airport noise, but it is still under the flight path, aircraft noise is definitely noticeable in that area, and large numbers of aircraft are visible taking off and landing there. Finch/Bathurst is not in that noise exposure forecast contour either but that area can also definitely be badly affected by aircraft noise at times, it is also under the flight path on the opposite site of the airport. I would take those NEF 25 contours with a grain of salt.
The east end of Meadowvale (around the Mavis/Derry area) is severely affected by airport noise and there are ugly "Aircraft Warning Noise" signs everywhere. There are other subdivisions in Mississauga and Brampton that are within the NEF 25 contour but these are clearly less desirable areas to live with lower property values.
Many of the office parks in Meadowvale (e.g. the RBC call centre) have highly visible aircraft warning lights on the roof.
The residential area in Meadowvale is one of the less desirable parts of Mississauga in my opinion. People do not want to live under airport flight paths.
