Scarborough is a multicultural, large area. It includes the Scarborough Bluffs, massive cliffs that overlook Lake Ontario. They are lined with parks and beaches. There are also hiking trails. The sprawling Toronto Zoo is located in the city. It features animal pavilions that allow for close-up encounters with animals, as well as a wildlife health center. It is also home to a wide variety of restaurants including Indian, Chinese, and regional Southeast Asian cuisines.
Scarborough has 40% of its dwellings as single detached houses, while the remainder are large apartment buildings or townhouses. About 40% of the properties in this ex-municipality were built between 1960 and 1980. The majority of buildings that remain were built before 1960 or in the 1980s. The area is home to a majority of four- or more bedroom homes, as well as three-bedroom and three-bedroom homes. The former municipality has around two-thirds of its dwellings occupied by homeowners, while the rest are rented.
