Our Area Rife With Culture

It's not a shock, but a new report that outlines where artists work and live in Toronto shows that our area is rife with them.
More artists live than work here and, as you would expect, there is a concentration of artists in the downtown core.
Here's an interesting tidbit from a BlogTO post about it:
"Occupational hubs include Liberty Village, the Entertainment District, Queen Street, and, wait for it, Scarborough at the 401. By way of explanation, the report notes that "Liberty Village specializes in desktop publishing, the Entertainment District specializes in architecture, Historic Queen Street specializes in editors, and Scarborough at 401 specializes in audio recording and video recording."

The most popular places to live are, on the other hand, quite predictable. Making up the top five are what the authors refer to as Parkdale Village, West Queen West, College Promenade, Little Italy, and the Annex."
Cheers,
Vanessa
