Neighbourhoods to know

VMC (Vaughan Metropolitan Centre)

Home to Vaughan Metropolitan Centre Station, a real TTC Line 1 subway terminus - about 45 minutes to Union Station, 5 minutes to York University. Vaughan is one of only two municipalities outside Toronto with direct subway access. Dense new-construction condos make up Vaughan's planned downtown core. Best fit for renters who want direct subway access without living in Toronto proper.

Maple

An established residential community with its own GO station (Maple GO, Barrie line). Good fit for renters who want a quieter, family-oriented area with a direct GO commute option.

Concord

A mix of industrial/commercial and newer residential development, close to Highways 400 and 407 and closer to the Toronto border than VMC. Good fit for renters prioritizing highway access and proximity to the city line.

Woodbridge

Vaughan's older, more established suburban core, with a historic village centre. More car-dependent and further from subway or GO access. Good fit for renters wanting a quieter, more traditional suburban feel.

Getting around

Vaughan has genuinely good subway access, unlike most of the GTA outside Toronto. Vaughan Metropolitan Centre (VMC) Station, opened in December 2017, is a real terminus of TTC Line 1 (Yonge-University) - about 45 minutes to Union Station and 5 minutes to York University station. Vaughan is one of only two municipalities outside Toronto with direct subway access. VMC also connects to York Region Transit's VIVA bus rapid transit along the Highway 7 Rapidway and to Brampton's Zum. GO Transit's Barrie line serves Vaughan as well, with Rutherford GO and Vaughan Metropolitan Centre GO stations running to Union Station.
