Welcome to community living in Aurora, Ontario

Located in the beautiful rolling hills of the Oak Ridges Moraine, the Charles Darrow Housing Co-operative in Aurora, Ontario (located within the Regional Municipality of York) is a 107 unit townhouse development that welcomes people from a variety of social, cultural and economic backgrounds into an environment that fosters respect, participation, and above all, co-operation.

What is the primary advantage of co-operative living? Affordability. You simply won't find more value for your rental dollar elsewhere. Our 2, 3 and 4 bedroom units are typically below the cost of comparable market units. Our townhomes are contemporarily designed with spacious rooms, garages, yards, and even patios on some units. Additionally the Charles Darrow Co-op is ideally situated near the major intersection of Yonge and Wellington streets, close to shopping, schools and transit (GO Transit train and bus, VIVA bus as well as York Region Transit bus). Highways 400 and 404 are both only a 15 minute drive away.
