| Description | This Toronto riding takes in the southeastern corner of Scarborough bordered by Lake Ontario. There is a mix of affluent homes along the lakeshore and working-class areas close to Eglinton Avenue.
It runs north to the transmission line, CN Rail line and Eglinton Avenue East, between Bellamy Road South and Bellamy Ravine Creek in the east and Victoria Park Avenue in the west.
Only 53 per cent of residents own their homes. Manufacturing is the largest source of employment in the riding. Average family income is $58,866 and unemployment is 7.8 per cent.
According to the 2001 census, the immigrant population is 44 per cent, with large Chinese and East Indian populations.
In 2004, a portion of Scarborough Centre has been added in the northwest and the eastern boundary has moved west to Bellamy Road. Scarborough West riding was established in 1966. In 1996, the name changed to Scarborough Southwest and a part of Scarborough East was added. |
