Markham is a city in the province of Ontario, just 30 kilometres north of downtown Toronto. It is part of the Greater Toronto Area, and is the most populous city in the York Region.

First inhabited by First Nations Peoples, this area was settled by Europeans when William Moll Berczy, a German artist and developer, led a group of approximately 64 German families to North America, first to Philadelphia and later to Markham Township. Other groups soon arrived, and the arrival of the railway in the late 19th century spurred more growth.

By the 1970s, Markham's population began to explode due to urban sprawl. People priced out of Toronto started moving north, and as a result, much of Markham's farmland disappeared. Now, large portions of the land and forest north of Major Mackenzie Drive are protected by the Oak Ridges Moraine Conservation Act.

A century ago, Markham's economy was based on agriculture, mills and distilleries. These days light industry and business keep the city's economy moving. Due to lower land costs and taxes, many large companies relocated their head offices to Markham in the 1980s. Now, over 1,500 technology and life science companies have offices in the city, including IBM, Advanced Micro Devices (AMD), and Lenovo. The city’s largest employers are IBM Canada, TD Financial Group, the City of Markham, and the Markham Stouffville Hospital.

Markham is located in the Eastern time zone. The weather in Markham varies throughout the year. Winters are typically cold, snowy, and windy, with average temperatures between -2 Celsius and -10 Celsius, but temperatures can drop as low as -20 Celsius in the coldest months. June to September are the hottest months, with temperatures reaching 26 Celsius. However, the humidity causes muggy days to feel much hotter.

All things considered, Markham offers excellent access to nature and easy transportation to Toronto, and it boasts a wide range of housing options for those looking to buy a home. From single-family homes to condos and townhouses, a real estate agent can help you find a home that best suits your needs.

Neighbourhoods

Despite the relatively small geographical space, the city of Markham holds over 30 neighbourhoods grouped into five districts: central, north, east, south and west. To find the right spot, talk to a Markham Realtor, as local knowledge will help you navigate Markham's neighbourhoods. From there, you can develop a shortlist that best meets your needs.

For easy access to Toronto, consider living in Milliken Mills East or Milliken Mills West, which offer easy access to Highways 401, 404, and 407. Plus, the Milliken GO transit station provides direct service to Toronto’s Union Station.

Those looking for a historic and family-friendly neighbourhood should consider Unionville in west Markham. Main Street is known for its charming shops, cafes, and restaurants. Additionally, Unionville residents have access to 25 parks and over 90 recreation facilities, so there is always something to do.

Families should consider homes in CornellGreensborough, and Markham Village. Cornell is a newer community that was first developed in the 1990s. This community has various price points since detached, semi-detached and townhomes can be found here. The great thing is the concept of putting the garage in front of the house—like so many suburban developers do—was abandoned for this community. This allows for big windows and front porches, and prompts children to play in the streets while neighbours chat. Greensborough was also built as a walkable community, making it transit and bicycle-oriented. The community also boasts many forests and parks, and kids can easily walk to the splash pad or the nature trails of Swan Lake. Markham Village is one of the more urban communities in the city, but that also means everything is within walking distance. Plus, the homes are older, with lots of character, and quite often, they are on larger lots.

Typically, the most expensive homes for sale in Markham are in Devil’s Elbow, Cachet, and Bayview Glen.

For more ideas on what community is best for you, talk to your local Realtor, or spend a weekend checking out open houses in Markham. Use our hot list as your guide. The list examines all communities in Markham and ranks each based on how many listings are available, the average sale price, and how long homes stay on the market.

Local Scoop

Markham offers activities for people of every age and lifestyle. Many Markham locals will take to the trails and forests to escape the traffic and noise of urban life.

Located on Bullock Drive at McCowan Road and across the street from Markville Mall, this is a popular place for kids to hang out and practise their board skills. Remember that only skateboarding and inline skating are allowed in the 15,000-square-foot park, and it's an unsupervised play space.

On rainy or snowy days, spend your time indoors at one of the city's many museums or galleries. The Markham Museum offers a glimpse into the daily lives of blacksmiths, weavers and farmhands.
