Based on the criteria you outlined, Scarborough may be your best bet. It's much closer to downtown than other suburbs with large Indian populations (e.g, Mississauga, Brampton, etc.), offers access to the bus and subway system and is well-priced in comparison to housing in the downtown core. That said, living anywhere outside of the downtown core may be a bit difficult without a car, particularly if you are in a house (i.e., away from central bus lines). I would suggest looking at properties on MLS using the map feature to get an idea of what is available. Good luck!
