A few of quick recommendations for those who know they want to live in East York, but don’t know where:
Students: While East York isn't necessarily an area where many students reside, it does offer a number of areas to rent an apartment. The best area for a student is likely Old East York. This is a large area, so we might suggest the area around Cosburn Ave. between Broadview and Pape. It's in walking distance to the subway, as well as The Danforth which has banks, restaurants, shopping and bars.
Young Professionals: The same really goes for young professionals - Old East York can offer a number of rental options - both in apartment buildings as well as floors in houses, and it's close to the the subway line and the Danforth.
Families: We'd suggest Thorncliffe Park. There many rental options along Thorncliffe and the area has its own shopping mall, school, library, park, community centre, churches, and business centre - everything a family might want in close proximity. Leaside is another good option for families, however there are few rental options in this area.
Emergency! I need a rental stat! So you need a hood with loads of rental options, close to public transit, grocery store, banks, liquor/beer store restaurants and shops. Check out Old East York.
