GO Transit moved 56.5 million customers in 2018, increasing the number of weekly trips by 13% to 217. Growing commuter demand has led to plans to increase its services by 55% over the next two years, with two lines in particular \u2013 Barrie and Stouffville \u2013 experiencing between 95 \u2013 100% growth in usage last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Most Affordable Homes Along the GO Transit Line<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But where along the GO Transit system will home buyers find their money goes furthest? To find out, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.zoocasa.com\">Zoocasa<\/a> collected home prices based on sold listings within a two-kilometre radius from each of the 66 GO Train stations from local real estate boards, as well as commute times based on a weekday arrival at Union Station around 8:30 a.m.\u00a0<br><br>The study found that, to score the greatest value, home buyers had better be prepared for a long ride. Two of the least expensive options include\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.zoocasa.com\/hamilton-on-real-estate\">homes for sale in Hamilton<\/a>; West Harbour station, located on the Lakeshore West line, tops the list as most affordable, with an average home price of $365,927 and a 71-minute commute, along with Hamilton station, which comes in third at $414,372, and a 72-minute commute.\u00a0<br><br>Those looking for\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.zoocasa.com\/kitchener-on-real-estate\">Kitchener real estate<\/a> are in luck, as the stop ranked second for its average home price of $403,907, and commute time of 111 minutes. The top five are rounded out by Allandale Waterfront \u2013 an option for those interested in\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.zoocasa.com\/barrie-on-real-estate\">Barrie real estate<\/a>, where homes cost an average of $467,152, and the commute time is 105 minutes, as well as Cooksville station, where one can pay an average of $473,874 and still enjoy a relatively short 33-minute commute.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Most Expensive Homes Along the GO Transit Line<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The most expensive GO station to live nearby is King City, where the average abode costs a steep $1,595,656, though commute time comes in under an hour at 43 minutes. That\u2019s followed by Port Credit ($1,361,029 and 25 minutes), Lincolnville ($1,308,108 and 79 minutes), Centennial ($1,040,488 and 52 minutes), and Maple ($1,021,813 and 35 minutes).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p
