The Housing Crisis
The Need is Urgent
Ontario is facing a housing crisis. 2.635 units will be needed in North Perth alone to meet demand by 2033.
Affordability is Out-of-Reach for Many
From 2018 to 2022, house prices rose 104%, rents 88%, but wages only rose 19%. That means many households can’t afford to own or rent a home.
Housing is Key to Attracting Talent
Affordable, quality housing is key to attracting and retaining skilled workers. Housing is the number one barrier to hiring for Perth and Huron employers according to the Four County Labour Planning Board.
Smart Growth Without Sprawl
This project develops underutilized urban space, preserving farmland and reflecting a shared commitment to responsible development while meeting today’s pressing needs.
