How much pent-up housing demand is there?
Nearly 25% of Toronto's 30-34 year-olds still live with their parents, and Vancouver's close behind. Montréal and the rest of the big six metros sit far below them — part of a demand gap that raw population totals overlook.

Permits lead starts by six to twelve months, and Vancouver's permit line rolled over first. Atlas tracks both monthly for every CMA, and city by city where permits are published, including cities StatCan no longer covers.

International migration fell from 339,801 in 2024 to 53,397 in 2025, an 84% drop, while the steady outflow to the rest of Ontario and Canada continued. Toronto's growth flatlined in a single year.

A unit that turned over in 2025 rents for far more than the sitting tenant next door pays: nearly $500 a month more in Toronto. Average-rent statistics blend the two and hide the gap.
