Better known as "Roncy", this fabulous hood isn’t called the country’s biggest baby hub for nothing! Just check out all the schools that are at capacity! Besides being a bastion for bouncing baby boys and girls, this fabled hood is a food lover’s paradise. Locavores get ready! With the numerous restaurants catering to many different tastes and the ever changing retail landscape it’s easy to see why the area has the kind of appeal it does. With a high walkscore of 91, Roncy is in walking distance to anything and all things wonderful. While not on the subway line, one can still catch the 504 streetcar northbound to Dundas West station. If you live north of Howard Park, your walk to the subway should be a short one! click TTC for area routes

The area hosts several festivals during the year, the two main festivals being the Roncy Rocks! Music & Arts Festival that has been successfully running for a number of years now and the Roncesvalles Polish Festival that definitely gives the area a nod to it’s Polish heritage.
The Sorauren Avenue Farmer’s Market is also a nice alternative to the supermarket! It runs every Monday from 3-7pm from mid-May to October.
The area does have a decent LCBO located on the very northern border of the area, north of Howard Park Avenue and where Dundas and Roncesvalles converge located in a plaza with a Loblaws.

This neighbourhood is quite special as it’s located next to High Park which houses a cute zoo Highparkzoo and also minutes to the lake depending how south you live off of Roncesvalles Avenue. Also nothing beats the Grenadier Restaurant with it's $2.99 breakfast, yes you read that correctly! Only Monday to Friday's 7-11am!
The housing stock is made up of detached, semi-detached, row homes as well as condos and lofts and units in small rental buildings. The remnants of Victorian and Edwardian era homes are pretty abundant and certainly a pleasure to admire.
