Statistics

 

Brandon's ratio of owned to rented private dwellings has been very consistent over time and represents a healthy mix of opportunities to either buy or rent.  Brandon's relatively young population, Brandon's 2021 median age is 39 years versus the Canadian mean of 41.9 years, influences the amount of rented properties as younger families are much more likely to rent then buy. 


The total private dwelling based on the 2021 Census was 22,526.
