Live in Richmond Hill
Located directly north of downtown Toronto. It is a large municipality of the Greater Toronto Area, with over 200,000 residents. It is primarily made up of spacious, single-family houses set amid wide swaths of green space. Being north of the 407 Highway, commuting is much easier than the downtown city clubs, yet it has easy access to the transit system if you choose to visit the big city. Despite being on the north end of Yonge Street, Richmond Hill offers a slower pace of life.
It also has many surrounding areas which are considered desirable communities of the GTA. These include Aurora and Newmarket to the North, Stouffville to the east and King City to the west……all within 20 minutes of Summit
