Inequalities in access to housing and social housing in the Montreal region
March 22, 2021
Hélène BÉLANGER (UQAM)
The Montreal region is the most affordable of Canada’s major metropolitan areas. This enviable position is attributed to lower home purchase costs and lower rents compared to the Toronto and Vancouver areas. Nevertheless, this relative affordability hides significant inequalities in access among renter households in the Greater Montreal area. We begin by drawing a brief portrait of the Montreal situation, followed by a presentation on the state of research on the issues of inequality of access to housing and social housing in the Montreal region.
