POPULATION GROWTH AND ECONOMIC PROSPECTS
Milton’s current population of around 125,000 is poised for substantial expansion in the coming three decades. Halton Region has set an ambitious goal of reaching a population exceeding 1.1 million people, representing an 85% increase from the 2021 figures. This growth is expected to generate 500,000 new jobs within the region, making Milton an ideal destination for living, working, and leisure. However, it is worth noting that by 2031, Halton is projected to require more than 90,000 new housing units while facing a shortage of over 35,000 homes. This shortage is anticipated to drive up demand, resulting in increased real estate values and rental rates.
PRIME LOCATION
Milton enjoys exceptional connectivity, with access to major highways, including the 407 and 401, connecting it to the Greater Toronto Area’s extensive road network. Positioned centrally, it is just an hour’s drive from the Canada-U.S. border, 30 minutes from Waterloo, a half-hour from Toronto Pearson International Airport, and 40 minutes from downtown Toronto.
FOCUSED ON EDUCATION
Milton places a strong emphasis on education, exemplified by Laurier University offering graduate-level courses at the MEV Centre. Furthermore, there are plans to establish a joint campus shared by Wilfrid Laurier University and Conestoga College within Milton’s Education Village. Notably, the city boasts the fifth most educated workforce in Ontario. This commitment to education is expected to create employment opportunities, generating a heightened demand for housing, thereby maintaining robust real estate values within the city.
