Corktown (Toronto) is a historic Toronto neighbourhood, originally settled by working class immigrants in the early 1800's. Many of these families came from the County of Cork in Ireland, which explains how this neighbourhood became known as Corktown. This area is one of the more affordable downtown Toronto neighbourhoods. It has recently become popular with young professionals, who find this location extremely convenient to Toronto's downtown business and entertainment districts. Many of Corktown's commercial buildings have recently been converted into live-in work studios, condominium lofts and professional offices, all of which has helped to revitalize the entire neighbourhood.
