Bayview Village is a neighbourhood in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, formerly in North York before it was amalgamated into Toronto in 1998. In 2006, it had a population of 15,370.

The area is bordered on the north by Finch Avenue East, on the west by Bayview Avenue, on the east by Leslie Street, and on the south by Highway 401, and also including the grounds of North York General Hospital, east of Leslie in the neighbourhood's southeast corner, according to the City of Toronto's definition. The Bayview Village Association regards the east boundary as the Don River (east branch) and the south boundary as Sheppard Avenue East, thereby excluding land between the Don River and Leslie, Sheppard and Highway 401, and the hospital.

Housing is mostly suburban, predominantly in the ranch bungalow style, built in the late 1950s and 1960s. Several of the street names recall that the area was a racehorse training stable and grounds before being developed.

Homeowners are actively represented by the Bayview Village Association. This is a volunteer group of residents who work to monitor city and provincial initiatives on a wide range of topics including traffic, local development, parks, and safety. In addition, they produce a regular newsletter distributed to all homes covering a wide range of topical issues. The Bayview Village Association also hosts a number of events throughout the year including clean-up days, all-candidates meetings, community fairs, etc..

There are three schools in the actual Bayview Village area, a public elementary Elkhorn Public School, a public middle school, Hollywood Publice School and one private school housed in a former public elementary school. There is also a Catholic Elementary school located on the west side of Bayview Avenue St. Gabriel. Most high school students who live in Bayview Village attend Earl Haig Secondary School, located west of Bayview. Some students inside the Village may also attend schools east of them, Georges Vanier Secondary School and A. Y. Jackson Secondary School.

The main shopping centre serving the area is also called Bayview Village, located at the northeast corner of Sheppard Avenue and Bayview Avenue.

Most of the houses are original. There has only been some limited infill housing (newly built houses replacing the older ones) within the Bayview Village area. Most homes have undergone renovation and landscaping to fit the park-like neighbourhood. New developments include high rise condominiums on the north side of Sheppard Avenue, on the south side of Bayview Village on the site of the former St Gabriel's Catholic church, and townhouse developments.

The recently built Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) Sheppard subway line passes through the neighbourhood, including Bayview and Bessarion stations.
