The monthly Metropolitan housing starts publication provides the recent trends in housing starts for 28 metropolitan areas and expectations for starts over both the short and long term.
Document Highlights
-
There are only six census metropolitan areas (CMAs) with positive short-and long-term expectations this month, the same number as last month. These are the CMAs in the up-up quadrant.
- All of the Quebec CMAs have positive short-term expectations but negative long-term ones.
- The CMAs with the biggest year-over-year percentage decrease in housing starts in June were Halifax, Thunder Bay, St. Catharines–Niagara, Kitchener–Waterloo, and Sherbrooke.
- London had the largest year-over-year percentage increase in starts last month.
