## Transit and Daily Convenience

Fifty transit stop points are mapped within Northwood Park, creating a high-density network along Grandravine Drive and Sentinel Road. These stops include intersections like Keele Street and St Regis Crescent, suggesting multiple access points for daily commuting. The concentration of stops indicates that public transportation is a primary mode of movement for residents in this area.

Four grocery stores, including No Frills and Walmart Supercentre, provide essential shopping options within the neighbourhood boundary.

## Recreation and Educational Facilities

Seven recreation facilities are present in Northwood Park, with the Grandravine Community Recreation Centre appearing as a key hub for community activities. The Northwood Community Centre also serves as a focal point for local programming and social interaction. These facilities offer structured environments for fitness, arts, and community engagement among the neighbourhood's population.

Four schools, including Stilecroft Public School and Elia Middle School, are located within the mapped area. Lamberton Public School and Derrydown Public School round out the educational options available to families residing in Northwood Park. While these institutions provide foundational learning opportunities, their specific catchment areas and program details remain outside the scope of the current evidence set. Sources:

## City market context

From the Toronto market article, 22 September 2026:

Toronto's housing market exhibits a sharp divergence in supply conditions, with semi-detached inventory tightening to 2.4 months while condominium apartments remain at 5 months. This segment-specific pressure contrasts with a city-wide sales-to-new-listings ratio of 41.9%, signaling that buyer leverage varies significantly by property type. Toronto's resale market shows divergent supply tightness by property type, with semi-detached homes falling to 2.4 months of inventory and condominium apartments dropping from 7 to 5 months between Q2 2025 and Q2 2026. This segment-specific absorption outpaces the broader city-wide sales-to-new-listings ratio of 41.9%, indicating that buyer competition is concentrated in lower-inventory freehold and mid-tier condo segments rather than across the entire market.
