Corktown is a downtown neighbourhood that has become extremely attractive to young professionals due it?s comparatively lower rent than other neighbourhoods near the financial and entertainment districts. As such, this east-end pocket is extremely vibrant and trendy, filled with young people taking advantage of Queen Street East, the nearby Distillery district, and much more. Corktown residents live within walking distance of the St. Lawrence market, which is a major benefit of the region as it is Toronto?s premier food market.
