Durham Region is a great place to work, live and play. A unique mix of urban and rural environments gives us many natural parks and trails to explore.

Durham Region is east of Toronto, in the Golden Horseshoe area of Ontario. It is a mix of rural, residential, and commercial land. North Durham is mostly rural, with a thriving agriculture sector, and is home to Oak Ridges Moraine. To the south, lakeshore communities offer urban development and a diverse employment base.

Durham has eight unique area municipalities, each with something new and interesting to discover:

  • Ajax
  • Brock
  • Clarington
  • Oshawa
  • Pickering
  • Scugog
  • Uxbridge
  • Whitby
