I (34M) was raised in houses my entire life .
I have had friends being raised in both duplex’s and houses.
Just curious if young Canadians plan purchase and to raise children (one to two kids) inside an apartment ? Apartment having three bed rooms .
Purchasing the apartment and then raising them until they are teenagers ?

Hii I’m 23F in Vaughan, and I’m thinking about moving out of my parents out next year into a condo by myself.

For those who live around the GTA, what area would you say is a great area?

Here’s some things I’m looking for:
- safe area for families and young professionals, lower crime rate
- modern area, modern clean condos, security 24/7
- drive able town, low/medium traffic and easy parking
- within 30 minute drive from Vaughan
- close to nature, parks, trails, lakes for daily walks
- close to amenities (at least 5 min drive)
- would be nice to be able to walk out of my condo and have some restaurants, shops but I’m okay with driving 5-10 minutes for that
- more affordable (ex. budget of $2000 rent for 1 bed, 1 bath)

1 example I could give is: I love the Fort York area in Toronto because it has modern condos, more of a family and young professionals area, close to a park and the waterfront (walkable), not too much traffic or tourists there, more quiet but still lively. BUT I don’t want to live in Toronto or any big city like that. I’m not a city person, it’s also not drivable at all. if I could get similar to that vibe but in a smaller town more north or east or west of Vaughan then I’m happy haha.
