The Pocket

The Pocket, So Unique, So Genuine

What makes The Pocket a genuinely good community? The answer is, the people. The name, derived from the area being closed in on three sides with only one accessible way in, was literally “made up” by a group of residents. The Pocket real estate consists of many pre- World War I homes, which is drawing a young urban professional crowd. I am an expert in Toronto real estate and will help you find an ideal piece of The Pocket property if this sounds like the neighborhood for you.

The Pocket’s People Make It Special

Not only did The Pocket’s community of residents give the area its name, but they make it a great place to live. Owners of The Pocket homes take pride in the neighborhood because many of them are natives to the area. The Pocket has a population of approximately 3,000, with one-third being first-generation immigrants. The residents commit themselves to activities, such as:

• Annual Trash Clean-ups
• Tree Planting Drives
• Cleaning up vandalized areas (an alley being vandalized was cleaned by residents and named Ben Kerr Lane)
• Volunteers building an ice rink in the park
• Pub Nights
• Street Parties
• Community Potlucks
• And more
