Winnipeg Downtown Demographics:

A Note to the Reader:
Information from the 2011 Canadian Census has just begun to be released. For Winnipegs Downtown, demographic information has only been released at the census-tract level. This level includes neighbourhoods whose boundaries extend outside of the downtown. Information at the Dissemination-Area level, and for within the Official Downtown Area, has not yet been released. Use of census-tract level data would result in the inclusion of information for areas outside of the downtown, which would skew the overall downtown picture. Census tracts that extend beyond the downtown include parts of West Broadway, South Point Douglas, West Alexander, Centennial, and Logan. Therefore, demographic data will be used from the 2006 census, as it conforms to the officially designated Winnipeg Downtown Boundaries. Emerging data from the 2011 census (for selected areas) will be included to help fill in the picture of an evolving downtown. Full 2011 census data for Winnipegs Officially Designated Downtown is expected, at the earliest, in July, 2013.

Housing: (Source: Housing in Winnipegs Downtown: Issues and Opportunities, 2008):

Approximately 9,375 dwelling units Downtown is approximately 91% rentals, compared to 35% citywide. However, the rental market downtown shrank by 2% between 2001 and 2006, as more people moved into condos. Ownership increased by 11% over this same period. 38% of all downtown residents live in the Broadway-Assiniboine district of the downtown. 14% live in the South Portage district. 26% live in the Central Park district. 6% Colony, 8% Portage-Ellice, 5% Chinatown, and 4% Exchange District. About 62% of downtown households are single person households. About 1800 units of residential housing were built in the downtown between 2005 and 2013. (Source: IUS) About 400 additional units are currently proposed or being planned. (Source: IUS) Winnipeg is expected to grow to 850,000 people by 2031 (Source: Our Winnipeg, 2010). This is an addition of 70,000 people by 2021, and 174,000 by 2031. The City hopes the downtown will capture between 13% and 22% of this growth. This will result in 2500-4100 of expected new housing units downtown by 2021. The City projects the downtown to grow by 4700-6700 people between 2006 and 2021. A rate of 1.9-2.4% per year.

Projected Growth: (Source: Housing in Winnipegs Downtown: Issues and Opportunities, 2008):

Demographics: (Source: 2006 Census)

Total 2006 population was 13,470 people. After a period of slight population loss in the 1990s, the downtown is again growing strongly, with sustained growth of 5% over the last decade. Projected population from the 2011 Census is over 14,000 people. Compared to Winnipeg, residents of downtown are younger, more ethnically diverse, less affluent, and more likely to be single. Significantly more people aged 20-35 live downtown (33.7%), than citywide (20.9%). This is partially from the high number of students living downtown. Downtown, 16.1% of residents identify as Aboriginal, compared to 10.2% citywide. Downtown, 35.2% of residents identify as a Visible Minority, 16.3% citywide. Downtown, 55.4% of residents identify as single, compared to 35.5% citywide.

Most new growth is expected to occur in three main areas: the Exchange District, some in Broadway-Assiniboine, and the largest amount at the north end of Waterfront Drive into South Point Douglas. Remaining areas are expected to see Minor Infill or Minor Redevelopment.
