Rent in Toronto is expensive.聽 Suburbs are cheaper.聽 There is no large Tamil community in Toronto.聽 There is a large Indian population in Brampton but I'm not sure how many are Tamil.聽 You need to have a household income of at least 50k to live okay but that would be in a lower rent area.聽 we pay a lot of tax here.

The comments from members are well thought out. Your community is big in Scarborough which is East Toronto. If you happen to work in Toronto centre, then budget for approx 2 hrs every day in commute time (actual travel plus traffic). You can rent a condo in Scarborough聽 for starts. Hopefuly this helps
