Illustration of the North York, Ontario skyline

North York almost functions like a city within Toronto: it has its own urban centre around Yonge and Sheppard, new condo towers, and at the same time quiet residential neighbourhoods with 1960s and '70s houses that many families are renovating. It's one of the areas where I get the most requests from Latino clients, precisely because it combines good transit with a calmer feel than downtown Toronto.
