Downtown Toronto not a significant employment zone for 905ers
I had to crunch some numbers for a school project, and here is one interesting stat.
As of 2001(that is the most up to date info the city has), only
109,930 residents of Halton, Peel, York, and Durham Regions(905ers) worked in downtown Toronto.
Less than 10% of the 905 region workers.
Toronto is approaching American style decentralization pretty fast and this will have interesting impacts on transit ridership, sprawl, and access to jobs.
