The purpose of the Halifax Regional Municipal Housing Supply and Needs Assessment is to identify the housing requirements in the Municipality based on housing supply, demand and estimates of future supply and demand trends over a five- and ten-year period at the regional level and at lower-level geographies. This Housing Supply and Needs Assessment will be used to support and provide direction for the members of the Housing and Homelessness Partnership initiative. It is also intended to inform a wide range of service providers, landlords, private developers and other housing stakeholders in the Halifax region.
