Is Westboro a good place for retirees?
Westboro has the City's Churchill Seniors Recreation Centre at 345 Richmond Road, and from the neighbourhood centre two grocery stores are an 8- to 10-minute walk, with several pharmacies on Richmond Road. The Highland Park Lawn Bowling Club, open since 1914, is nearby.
As of · Updated
In the 2021 census, the ONS 'Westboro' area had a median age of 42.8 and 42.3% of its dwellings were apartments in buildings of five or more storeys, so there are many apartments and condos alongside older houses. Walking times are westboro.homes estimates from OSRM's foot profile on OpenStreetMap streets and paths (about 5 km/h, no waits at crossings), measured from the neighbourhood centre.
