Does any municipality from the Region of Durham feature in the list of some of the most and least affordable neighbourhoods in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) in May 2026.
Here is a list of the top 5 most – and least – expensive localities in the GTA according to sales during the month of May.
Across the GTA, home prices continue to vary widely from one community to the next. In some neighbourhoods, large detached homes and premium locations continue to command multi-million-dollar prices, while other areas, often with a higher concentration of condos, offer buyers a more accessible path into the market.
Drawing on Wahi’s analysis of May 2026 sales data in neighbourhoods with five or more transactions, here’s a look at the GTA’s most expensive and most affordable neighbourhoods.

2. Moore Park, Old Toronto: Moore Park takes second spot, with a median sold price of $2,937,500. The established central Toronto neighbourhood is known for its quiet residential streets, ravine access, and large detached homes. Its location near Rosedale, Summerhill, and the Beltline Trail helps make it one of the city’s most desirable luxury markets.
