The Diagnostic portrait of housing in Laval is a comprehensive housing report produced by Curbcut in collaboration with the City of Laval. This project provides an in-depth analysis of Laval's housing landscape, highlighting key trends and challenges related to demographic, economic, social, and built-environment factors.
The report examines the city's growing population, shifting patterns of homeownership and renting, and the increasing pressure on the housing market. It identifies affordability challenges, with many households facing high housing costs relative to their income, and explores the implications of demographic changes, such as an aging population.
To support data-driven decision-making, the report introduces housing targets for the coming years, offering insights to inform Laval's housing policies and planning efforts. The findings are complemented by an interactive online platform available at curbcut.ca/laval, allowing stakeholders to explore the data in more detail.
