The Town of Ajax, sometimes called Ajax by the Lake, sits on the shore of Lake Ontario in the GTA’s rapidly-growing Durham region. Bordered to the west and north by the City of Pickering and to the east by the Town of Whitby, it has a population of approximately 110,000. It’s one of the most accessible municipalities in the region thanks to the Ontario Highway 401.
Its downtown is centred around the intersection of Bayly Street and Harwood Avenue, with its bulk being located along the latter. It begins from the Rouge Valley Hospital in the south and extends northward to the 401. Currently, there are numerous local businesses in the area, but the area is about to undergo a $32 million transformation into a thriving and walkable community that will foster innovative new development models in an eco-friendly manner.
The town maintains a strong business network in its own right, with more than 1,900 local businesses and a local labour force of approximately 42,000.
Residents here enjoy an abundance of lifestyle options, including 37 soccer fields, 18 baseball diamonds and 6 indoor ice rinks. The area is not without its natural resources either, which include waterways and six acres of prime Lake Ontario waterfront, which remains mostly undeveloped and surrounded by parkland.
As it stands, many of the homes in Ajax are single-family, detached houses. The younger, more urban population, however, is increasingly interested in the modern condominium lifestyle. What does this mean for investors? It means some of the exciting new residential projects coming to Ajax will make great income properties.
