Affordablehousing is a prime concern for Canadians, and the pressure is mounting. realestate realestatenews housing
from Habitat for Humanity Canada found that affordable housing was the third-highest concern for Canadians, right behind inflation and healthcare. Not too surprisingly, nearly every Canadian surveyed — 96% — said that their cost of living has increased over the past year, with a staggering 78% saying they are worried about having to spend less of food, savings, transportation, and debt to be able to make their housing payments.
“This survey underscores how deeply concerned Canadians are about their housing situations and futures as affordable housing becomes increasingly out of reach,” said Julia Deans, President and CEO of Habitat for Humanity Canada. With such a heavy focused being placed on development to solve the housing crisis, more than half of the poll respondents said that NIMBYism is one of the biggest barriers to creating affordable housing. Discrimination was also seen as a barrier, with 11% responding that they have experienced racism, sexism, or another form of discrimination while looking for housing. BIPOC Canadians were more than twice as likely to report this.
