Silverthorn is a working class neighborhood filled with affordable homes within a reasonable commuting distance of downtown Toronto. Silverthorn has an established Italian community as well as being home to many new Canadians from a myriad of different backgrounds.
Silverthorn's hilly terrain is the distinguishing feature of this neighborhood. The predominantly one way streets that twist and wind through Silverthorn's gently rolling hills are a refreshing change from the grid-like street pattern common in so many Toronto neighborhoods.

The main shopping thoroughfare in Silverthorn is situated along Eglinton Avenue. Here you will find local convenience stores mixed in with professional and medical offices. The Westside Mall, on Eglinton Avenue at Caledonia Road, is anchored by national department and grocery stores.
