Four parts of Ajax
Ajax sits on Lake Ontario between Pickering and Whitby, about 40 kilometres east of downtown Toronto, with roughly 130,000 residents. Most of the housing is detached and semi-detached, built from the 1970s onward. It splits naturally into four areas.
- South Ajax
- Lakeside, Discovery Bay, Pickering Beach, Duffins Bay and Southwood, closest to Lake Ontario, Lakeside Park, Carruthers Marsh, Rotary Park and the waterfront trail. This is where the team’s experience runs deepest.
- Central Ajax
- Nottingham, Applecroft and the streets around the Ajax Community Centre and Ajax Downs. Established, with a mix of detached homes, semis and townhomes near schools and shopping.
- West Ajax
- Riverside and the streets running into Pickering Village along the Duffins Creek ravine, where Ajax meets Pickering. Older character homes beside newer infill.
- North Ajax
- The growth area between Rossland Road and Highway 407, including Audley and Salem, with newer detached homes and townhomes.
Where the team lives, and what they do there
Doug and Rich are based in Lakeside, tucked between Carruthers Marsh and the lake, and they take part in the neighbourhood as well as sell in it: the annual Lakeside Easter Egg Hunt, and a local food drive with Feed the Need Durham. The Lakeside neighbourhood guide has the full picture.
Prices across Ajax vary by area. Detached homes sit in the middle of the Durham Region range, above Oshawa and roughly in line with Whitby, with townhomes and semis in Central and North Ajax at the lower end and the Lakeside pocket carrying a premium for its closeness to the water.
