North York by the numbers.

Verified figures and local facts we use to plan campaigns in North York, ON.

North York is one of Toronto's largest districts, stretching from the high-rise core at Yonge and Sheppard to quieter streets in York Mills and Don Mills. Major shopping centres at Yorkdale, Bayview Village and Don Mills draw customers from across the city.

For a local business, that means strong demand and strong competition in the same place. York University's Keele Campus, the new Finch West line and the planned Downsview neighbourhoods keep adding students, commuters and residents to reach.

With York University students and transit commuters in the mix, a North York website needs fast mobile pages, clear directions and simple online booking.
