Scarborough

Situated within the Greater Toronto Area metropolitan area, Scarborough is a former municipality in Toronto, Ontario.

Transportation

Scarborough offers house buyers several alternative modes of transportation. The fairly good public transit access allows people to get to many destinations without needing a car. More precisely, commuters can count on a multitude of rapid transit stations on the Line 2 (Bloor - Danforth). There is the Kennedy, Milliken and Guildwood on the Lakeshore East and Stouffville. Homeowners benefit from over 50 bus lines, and bus stops are not very far away from most properties. Most houses for sale in this part of the city are located in places that are also conducive to those who travel by foot; many daily errands can be run without the use of a car, and there are also a good number of businesses nearby. It is easy to move around by bike in Scarborough.

Services

The closest grocery store in this area is usually only a rather short walk away. There are also a limited number of opportunities for those who care about nearby restaurants and cafes. Regarding education, families will value the proximity to schools and daycares, which are within walking distance from most homes for sale in Scarborough. Besides public schools, there are private elementary and high schools.

Character

Scarborough offers a slower-paced atmosphere and will appeal to home buyers who enjoy spending time in green spaces. The noise levels in this area are reasonably low, as the streets tend to be tranquil - however noise can be an issue near Highway 401, Highway 2a or one of the railway lines. Lastly, there is a fair amount of greenery in this part of Toronto; there are over 800 public green spaces close by for residents to enjoy, like Trca Lands and Rouge Park, and they are very well-distributed, which makes it very easy to reach them. Furthermore, residents will find that there are numerous tree-lined streets.

Housing

In Scarborough, about one third of buildings are single detached homes, while large apartment buildings are the main alternative in the housing stock. This part of the city has a good selection of unit sizes, ranging from lofts to four or more bedrooms. Roughly two thirds of the population of this former municipality own their home and renters make up the remainder. Around one third of homes in this part of the city were built in the 1960s and 1970s, while most of the remaining buildings were built pre-1960 and in the 1980s.
