Households and mobility
A community snapshot with the reference year attached.
The profile counted 3,605 people in private households across 1,650 households, with an average household size of 2.2 people.
15% of the population was age 14 or younger, 14% was age 65 or older, 18% were immigrants. These figures describe Winston Heights/Mountview at the 2021 Census reference date and should not be read as a prediction of who will buy a particular home.
Across 1,650 private households, median total household income before tax was $97,000 in 2020; this is demographic context, not a measure of current purchasing power or home value.
1,735 residents aged five and older had moved within the prior five years (51%); that is household-mobility context rather than a proxy for real estate turnover.
910 members of the employed labour force used driver – car, truck or van as their main commute mode (76%), while 555 reported the most common duration, 15 to 29 minutes (46%).
