About The Danforth
The Danforth, also known as East Danforth and Danforth Village, is a well-known and well-loved community in Toronto’s east end. Located along Danforth Avenue (the extension of Bloor Street that runs east of the Don Valley Parkway), this bustling neighbourhood is full of life and culture year-round.
The Danforth is perhaps best known for its collection of shops, restaurants, and nightlife hotspots along Danforth Avenue. It’s also one of the largest Greek neighbourhoods in North America! Residents and visitors can expect to find authentic Greek cuisine right on their doorsteps, along with a superb collection of local grocers, fruit stands, cafes, and restaurants along the Danforth strip.
When it comes to local homes, there’s a very diverse range of styles, sizes, and locations. Go north of Danforth Avenue and you’ll find some of the more traditional detached and semi-detached homes in the Victorian and Edwardian styles. Go south, and you’ll find more of a mix—including a selection of newer builds, bungalows, condo buildings, and apartments.
Who Lives Here
From singles to young couples to large families, there’s space for everyone in the Danforth. Thanks to the diverse range of homes available to buy and rent, anyone can find the perfectly-sized place here.
One of the best parts about The Danforth is how multicultural the neighbourhood is. The community is home to local residents from all over the world, which contributes to its warm and welcoming feel—along with its fantastic food and culture.
What's Great About It?
One can’t-miss local event is the annual “Taste of the Danforth” street festival, where thousands of local vendors and millions of visitors take over the avenue for a multi-day celebration of cuisine and culture. This summertime festival is one of Toronto’s most popular food-related events.
The Danforth is also very close to public transit, as Danforth Avenue contains several easily-accessible subway stations. These include Broadview, Chester, Pape, Donlands, Greenwood, Coxwell, Woodbine, and Main Street Stations. Additionally, regular bus routes serve the area.
Schools
Another huge perk of living in the Danforth is its selection of schools. Some of its most popular options include Secord Elementary School and Gledhill Public School, which welcome students from kindergarten through grade 6.
Additionally, Earl Haig Public School, George Webster Public School, Earl Beatty Public School, and St. Brigid Catholic School all welcome students from k-8.
