Whitby offers a mix of housing options for its residents, including single-family homes, townhouses and apartments. Thanks to its deep history, it has many charming, older homes; however, the community has also seen newer construction opportunities in recent years to accommodate its growth.

Whitby has it all — from a rich heritage, which the town is committed to preserving through its museums and historical sites, to a vibrant arts and culture scene, beautiful beaches, trails, a conservation area, golf courses and parks (including an off-leash dog park and splash pads). Its charming downtowns offer a mix of small businesses, boutique shops and unique restaurants. The community also has many great schools, churches, sports centres, theatres, farmer’s markets and more.
