112A - How can demographic projections help us understand the future pattern of housing demand?

October 14, 2020

10:45AM - 11:15AM

What happens to demand for housing as the population ages? What are the trends in household formation among young adults? How does housing affordability affect household formation and tenure choice? These questions and others are addressed in this session, which shares Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation’s (CMHC) findings on the pattern of housing demand to 2030 based on demographics for Ontario and its major population centres. Topics include:
 
•current trends in the composition of population growth and household characteristics;
•the interaction between population growth and household formation;
•the affect of migration on demand for housing; and
•the potential scale of seniors housing and the implications for urban planning and housing.
