TRREB Community Housing Market Report, 2026 Q1, all home types, TRREB districts C03, C04, C09, C10, C11. We group those districts into Midtown ourselves, so the boundary is an approximation, not an official one. The district average is total dollar volume divided by total sales, not an average of the community averages. TRREB suppresses any community with two or fewer sales, so a few small communities are missing rather than zero. Averages mix property types: a community that is mostly condos averages far below one that is mostly houses.
What Midtown is like
A two-speed market. Detached houses in Forest Hill, Lawrence Park, Rosedale, and Leaside are among the most expensive in Canada, while the Yonge-Eglinton and Mount Pleasant condo towers sell for well under a million. Flemingdon Park and Thorncliffe Park, on the east edge, are the affordable exceptions.
Communities worth knowing
- Yonge-Eglinton
- The district's condo centre, with the Crosstown interchange under the intersection.
- Forest Hill South
- Old money, big lots, and the private school corridor around Upper Canada College and Bishop Strachan.
- Lawrence Park South
- The most expensive residential streets in the district outside the Bridle Path, with ravines and strong public schools.
- Leaside
- Planned streets, strong school catchments, and new Crosstown stations.
- Mount Pleasant West
- Condos and apartments on Yonge from Davisville to Eglinton, and the busiest market in Midtown by sales.
- Flemingdon Park
- High-rise rental stock and the lowest average price in Midtown.

Getting around Midtown
- Line 1 along Yonge Street, with stops at Davisville, Eglinton, Lawrence, and York Mills.
- Line 5 Eglinton, the Crosstown, which opened on February 8, 2026 and runs east-west through Leaside and Forest Hill.
- The Yonge and Bathurst buses, and Line 2 at the southern edge near Bloor.
Who Midtown suits
Families choosing schools first, executives who want a subway commute to the financial district, and downsizers who want to stay near Yonge Street.
Who it is wrong for
Buyers on a moderate budget who want a house, and anyone who wants nightlife and street life outside the Yonge and Eglinton corridors.

Midtown: frequently asked questions
How much do homes cost in Midtown Toronto?
TRREB recorded 425 sales across 15 Midtown communities in 2026 Q1, at a sales-weighted average of $1,431,683. That runs from about $490,364 in Flemingdon Park to $2,620,909 in Forest Hill North, so the average says little about any single street.
Is Midtown Toronto good for families?
It is where most families who prioritise schools end up. Leaside, Lawrence Park, and Forest Hill have some of the strongest public and private school reputations in the city, with parks and quiet streets. The cost is the highest house prices on the subway.
What is the difference between Midtown and Downtown Toronto?
Downtown is condos, offices, and walkable urban life. Midtown is a belt of established residential streets with a condo corridor along Yonge Street, quieter after dark, with larger houses and better school reputations at higher house prices.
Has the Eglinton Crosstown changed Midtown?
It opened on February 8, 2026, giving Leaside, Forest Hill, and the Eglinton corridor an east-west rail line for the first time. It is too recent to show up clearly in the 2026 Q1 sales data, so treat any claimed price effect with caution.
