What the numbers mean

• Owners valued the median home at $250K in the 2016 census. Indexed to September 2026 prices with the Winnipeg MLS® Home Price Index (+50% since then), that is about $375K, 16% below the Winnipeg median of $444K. It is an estimate: the index tracks the whole region, not this neighbourhood.
• 63% of households rent, well above the 35% city-wide, so expect a younger, more mobile mix of neighbours.
• Only 3% of residents are under 15, versus 17% city-wide.
• 19% of residents are 20 to 29, versus 15% city-wide. It skews young-professional.
• 32% are 65 or older, versus 14% city-wide, a sign of long-time residents and a settled pace.
• 99% of homes are apartments (33% city-wide), so a condo is the usual way in.
• Tenants paid a median of $1,155 a month in shelter costs in the 2016 census, which covers all tenants including long-term ones, so a new lease will cost more.

How it's changing

Winnipeg doesn't publish building permits by neighbourhood, so we can't chart construction here yet.

Safety

Neighbourhood-level crime figures aren't available for Winnipeg. The Winnipeg Police Service doesn't publish open crime counts by neighbourhood. Check Statistics Canada's crime tables for municipality-wide trends, and the local police website for crime maps. Why this is missing.
