Why live in east york?

East York and Danforth Village is a neighborhood in Toronto that is known for its shopping district along Danforth Avenue.

 The area is home to several shops and restaurants that reflect the multicultural flavor of the residents who live in this neighborhood. The relative affordability of the houses in Danforth Village, together with the convenience of the Bloor-Danforth subway line make the Coxwell and Danforth neighborhood an excellent choice for first-time homebuyers. During the summer months, the sidewalks are overflowing with colorful planters, fresh local produce, and all year round you’ll find an active community that tends to support those around them. 

Every weekend you’ll find couples strolling, parents chasing toddlers, singles cycling and dogs stopping for friendly bowls of water as they all make their way down the long, vibrant Danforth strip. Danforth Village is also right in the center of the easiest commuter pocket on the East side of town. You’ll find Greenwood, Coxwell, Woodbine and Main subway stations, and the Danforth GO train, which zips you to Union in no time at all. 

Close proximity to the downtown core, a mix of trendy and traditional shopping as well as a huge selection of amazing restaurants are all great reasons to consider Danforth Village as a potential long-term home.
