Unionville, Milliken and Cornell each hold a distinct place inside one of York Region's most in-demand cities — a heritage Main Street, an established multicultural suburb, and a master-planned New Urbanism community. Markham is home to more tech-sector head offices than any other Canadian municipality. Amir Rehmani, MBA, Realtor®, helps buyers move through Markham with a clear read on value, off-market access where it exists, and a strategy built for the specific listing — not a generic template.
Markham hosts more technology-sector head offices than any other city in Canada, which underpins consistently strong demand from professional buyers. Unionville anchors the city's premium tier — a preserved 19th-century Main Street with heritage buildings, mature streetscapes and some of the region's highest-ranked schools.
Milliken, along the Scarborough border, is one of the GTA's most established Chinese-Canadian communities, with deep retail and community infrastructure. Cornell, by contrast, is one of Ontario's most complete New Urbanism developments — walkable grid streets, laneway garages and front porches, built specifically to reduce car dependency.
