City Guide
Canada’s high-tech hub, a deeply diverse population, and Unionville’s historic main street — Markham blends old-town charm with new-build ambition.
Markham is where the GTA’s tech economy lives — IBM, AMD, and a corridor of IT firms anchor one of Canada’s most diverse and highly educated cities. Daily life ranges from the heritage shops of Unionville’s Main Street to the rising condo towers of Downtown Markham, from the golf-course estates of Angus Glen to the new-urbanist grid of Cornell. Top-ranked schools and an unmatched range of Asian dining and retail draw families from across the region — and keep prices among York Region’s highest.
