District of Toronto
Scarborough
Scarborough is the eastern part of the City of Toronto, bordering Pickering (Durham Region) to the east and Markham to the north. Statistics Canada does not count it on its own, so the figures below are for the whole city.
The east end of subway Line 2 (Warden, Kennedy) is here, and several GO stations on the Lakeshore East and Stouffville lines make it easy to reach both downtown and Markham. Condos and houses mix along Highway 401.
