A few of quick recommendations for those who know they want to live in East Toronto, but don’t know where:

Students: Most universities and colleges aren’t located in this area. Assuming you want to live close to a subway station and close to a lot of young people then we suggest The Danforth.

Young Professionals: The Danforth is always a popular choice. However, there are some other gems in this area including The Beach (if you’re cool with a streetcar) and Riverdale and Leslieville.

Families: The East End has a lot of great, affordable housing and good schools as well. The average family has a better chance of being able to afford to rent a home in this area. Take a look at Riverdale, Greenwood-Coxwell and The Danforth.

Emergency! I need a rental stat! So you need a hood with loads of rental options, close to a subway station, grocery store, banks, liquor/beer store restaurants and shops. Check out The Danforth.
