The Oshawa market
Oshawa is the largest city in Durham Region, east of Toronto along Lake Ontario, long known as the home of General Motors in Canada and now also as a university city with Ontario Tech University and Durham College. Its relative affordability has drawn many families from Toronto, and the surrounding communities of Whitby, Ajax, and Clarington have grown alongside it.
