Hi,
This a reply to a PM may be helpful to check south Asian community area.
I am always suggesting that initially you can take short term accommodation for few days and then personally visit the areas & check permanent accommodation. You may need to signs the lease contract for permanent accommodation.
Near Toronto Indian, Pakistani, Bangladeshi, sri lankan and other south Asian communities are reside in these areas.
East York, Thorncliffe Park, Gerrard Street (The area is also commonly referred to as "Little India", Little Pakistan, or little South Asia),
Danforth Ave, Scarborough, Raxdale, Mississauga, Brampton, Markham, Vaughan and Richmond Hills area. South Asian community is also living in
Oakville, Ajax, Pickering, and Hamilton areas.
For reasonable rent short term accommodation I have listed on this link.
