General boundary: Victoria Park Avenue to Pickering; St. Clair Avenue East to Lake Ontario
Multicultural, up-and-coming and full of natural beauty, Scarborough is an east end community that boasts some of the Greater Toronto Area’s best (and some of the country’s best) ethnic food, dished out in unassuming little strip mall restos. It’s also home to wildly scenic locales like the lakeside Scarborough Bluffs (great for year-round exploring and summer swimming) and Rouge Park, Canada’s first national urban park, complete with camping, hiking trails, beaches, farms and 10,000 years of human history.
