School boundaries are set by street address and may be adjusted temporarily as enrolment grows; a school being inside the community does not mean every address is in its boundary. Please confirm with the TDSB school finder and the TCDSB school finder. School locations are from City of Toronto Open Data (School Locations), and names and grades from the Ontario Ministry of Education's public school information data (2024–25); schools too close to a community boundary to place with confidence, special programs and temporary sites are not listed. This page does not rank schools.

Housing types
(To be added: the mix of existing home types will be written once public census data that maps cleanly to this community's boundary is available. Statistics Canada's 2021 Census is published by dissemination area and census tract, which do not line up with TRREB's Cabbagetown-South St. James Town market boundary, so this page does not estimate the housing stock.) The by-type figures in "Recent sales and home prices" below are sales in that quarter, not the housing stock.
Recent sales and home prices
This section shows two kinds of data published by TRREB; please read them separately. The first is actual sales summarized in the quarterly community report. The second is the monthly MLS® Home Price Index (HPI) benchmark price, which describes a typical home. The quarterly report and the HPI are measured differently and cannot be added together. Where there are two or fewer sales, TRREB does not publish some price measures. These figures are for reference only and are not a guarantee of the value of any property.
This page does not show current listings or individual sale records. For recent sales on a particular street or home type, or a value estimate for your home, please contact Ming.

Source: the Cabbagetown-South St. James Town by-type page of the same TRREB Q2 2026 Toronto C08 community report. Of the 41 sales this quarter, 20 were condo apartments. By-type average and median prices are taken from the chart labels in thousands (e.g. $1,346K), not exact to the dollar; sales and new listings are whole numbers from the charts. For home types with two or fewer sales, or none, prices and some ratios are not published per the report's convention and are shown as "—".
Compared with Toronto C08 (Q2 2026, all home types)
All community figures below are taken directly from the summary table of the same quarterly report. Cabbagetown-South St. James Town's average price this quarter was $952,805 and its median price $735,000; among the 6 communities in the table with price figures, it ranked number 1 by average price and number 1 by median price (highest first). The combined row adds up the rows that have figures for sales, dollar volume, new listings and active listings; the combined average is combined dollar volume ÷ combined sales, not a district-wide average published separately by TRREB. Median price, sold/list price and days on market cannot be summed from community figures, so the combined row omits them. The community's average price is $264,886 above the combined average.

MLS® Home Price Index (HPI) benchmark prices
TRREB's October 2026 HPI public tables include Toronto C08's district-wide composite and by-type benchmark prices, but no separate row for Cabbagetown-South St. James Town, so this page lists only the district-wide figures and does not make up a community-level benchmark.
