Scarborough remains the most affordable way to buy inside the City of Toronto proper, with larger detached lots than almost anywhere else in the city and communities as diverse as Agincourt, Malvern and Scarborough Village. With GO Transit and a subway extension on the way, it's also one of the places where getting in early still matters.
Scarborough offers something increasingly rare in the City of Toronto: real detached houses on real-sized lots, at prices meaningfully below the downtown core and much of North York or Etobicoke. Neighbourhoods like Agincourt, Malvern, Wexford and Scarborough Village each have their own character and their own long-established, highly diverse communities — South Asian, Chinese, Caribbean, Filipino and Tamil communities among the largest.
That affordability, combined with GO Transit service along the Lakeshore East and Stouffville lines and the Line 2 subway extension currently under construction toward Sheppard and McCowan, has made Scarborough one of the most active markets for investors and first-time buyers alike. Rental demand here is consistently strong, particularly near GO stations and future subway stops — Scarborough is a market where infrastructure timing can move prices meaningfully.
