South Leaside, the more desirable area, is East of Bayview, North of Moore, South of Eglinton, West of Laird.
North Leaside is north of Eglinton, south of Sunnybrook, west of Laird ,East of Bayview.
The Bayview Extension allows easy and rapid access to the downtown, which is why so many professionals live there.
Leaside has its' own Lawn Bowling, Swimming Complex, Hockey Arena,Tennis Club, all can be walked to.

That's Richmond Hill.
The Chinese think Richmond is Rich Man, that is why you find so many Asian communities in places called Richmond, they think it is a sign of wealth.

Riverdale, which you mention as being "interesting" also has a significant Asian population; one of the kid's friends was one of three non-Asian students in his year at Riverdale Collegiate. Does this mean you think Richmond Hill to be interesting?

Re: Toronto
Riverdale and RH entirely different areas, one made up of old neighbourhoods, the other predominantly strip malls and new subdivisions with big houses.
We lived in Riverdale when we first came to Canada, it was mainly lower class and new Immigrants, neighbourhood now changed as it has a China Town, albeit a stinky China Town, big fights with city due to store owners leaving garbage out, which brings in rats.
Riverdale ends at the Danforth, which is predominantly Greek, hence, Greektown.

Re: Toronto
Fascinating. Now please explain why there are so many orientals in Markham. And around Dundas and Spadina.
