Durham Region Homes for Sale and Market Stats

Eight municipalities east of Toronto, from lakeshore commuter towns to farm country.

Durham Region sits directly east of Toronto along Lake Ontario and runs north to Lake Simcoe. The lakeshore municipalities (Pickering, Ajax, Whitby, Oshawa, Clarington) are connected to downtown Toronto by the Lakeshore East GO line and Highway 401, with Highways 407 and 412 and 418 opening up the northern subdivisions. Uxbridge, Scugog and Brock are the rural northern townships. Most Durham purchases are freehold houses, which is why the true monthly cost here is driven by property tax as much as by the mortgage.
