Jane and Finch is a neighbourhood located in the northwest end of Toronto, Ontario, Canada, in the district of North York. Centred at the intersection of Jane Street and Finch Avenue West, the area is roughly bounded by Highway 400 to the west, Driftwood Avenue to the east, Grandravine Drive to the south, and Shoreham Drive to the north. It is a multicultural neighbourhood.
The community has one of the largest concentrations of criminal gangs of any area in Canada. It also has "one of the highest proportions of youth, sole-supported families, refugees and immigrants, low-income earners and public housing tenants of any community in Toronto”. In 2002, only 70% of people in the neighborhood had proper indoor plumbing (compared to 95% of Canadians), and brownouts were common.
As part of a neighbourhood rebranding strategy in 2008, Toronto councillor Anthony Perruzza had banners attached to hundreds of hydro poles in Jane and Finch, calling the area University Heights.

#NewsYouCanUse: Toronto’s Jane and Finch community has continued to be plagued with a reputation of violence and crime that is continuously perpetuated by mainstream media.

#NewsYouCanUse: Toronto’s Jane and Finch community has continued to be plagued with a reputation of violence and crime that is continuously perpetuated by mainstream media. But Nathan Baya and a group of artists from the area are using a new art exhibit called, ‘Aspire to Insure’ to change that. This week on #NYCU I went to see the work that Nathan is doing and spoke with him about why highlighting the positive aspects of the area is so important. What other neighbourhoods do you think has a bad rap that it doesn’t deserve? Let us know in the comments!!

After a two-year hiatus because of the Covid-19 pandemic, the 4th Annual Tastes and Sounds of Jane and Finch has returned for the community. The event is a way for the community to come together and knock down negative stereotypes.
Jane and Finch is a neighbourhood located in the northwest end of Toronto, Ontario, Canada, in the district of North York. Centred at the intersection of Jane Street and Finch Avenue West, the area is roughly bounded by Highway 400 to the west, Driftwood Avenue to the east, Grandravine Drive to the south, and Shoreham Drive to the north. It is a multicultural neighbourhood.
The community has one of the largest concentrations of criminal gangs of any area in Canada. It also has "one of the highest proportions of youth, sole-supported families, refugees and immigrants, low-income earners and public housing tenants of any community in Toronto”. In 2002, only 70% of people in the neighborhood had proper indoor plumbing (compared to 95% of Canadians), and brownouts were common.
As part of a neighbourhood rebranding strategy in 2008, Toronto councillor Anthony Perruzza had banners attached to hundreds of hydro poles in Jane and Finch, calling the area University Heights.
