Community Overview
Elgin Mills Rd W Rd is at South East Corner of Westbrook Community. The Westbrook community runs from Bathurst St on the West to Elgin Mill on the south, Yonge St on the East, and Gamble Road on the north. The community is relatively new. The substantial real estate development of Westbrook Richmond Hill occurred in 2000, led by urban sprawl and the influx of many new immigrants. In past 3 months, 8 Town homes were sold at average of $1.26M. Besides English, the other languages commonly used at home are Russian, Italian, Chinese and Persian. Public transit is not very convenient, but YRT bus lines on both Yonge and Bathurst Street can take commuters directly to Finch subway station, which links to the central transit system to downtown Toronto. The Elgin West Community Centre at the west end of the community close to Bathurst Street provides amenities such as a swimming pool, gymnasium, free wifi, meeting rooms and a children's playground. Most shops are centred at Yonge Street and Elgin Mills. For a family looking for an affordable but safe neighbourhood with a great school zone in Richmond Hill, West Brook should be on top of the list.
