Rental Demographics

People from other places and settlements mostly occupy Peterborough. This mainly owes to the fact that the township of Peterborough is more closely located in some of the densely populated towns in Ontario, such as Toronto, Kawarthas Lakes, and Kingston. The more recent data, dating to 2024, showcases the following demographic insights: 

  • Indigenous Rental occupants - 730
  • Non-indigenous rental occupants - 12,350

The average Indigenous occupant's household income has been noted as CAD 40,167, with a median income of CAD 30,568 and an average rent pay of CAD 913. The average non-indigenous renter’s household income has been noted as CAD 41,478, with a median income of CAD 33,108 and an average rent of CAD 959. 

Moreover, about 59% of Indigenous occupants are noted to be paying more than 30% of their household income on rent, with only 53% of non-indigenous occupants doing the same. Lastly, about 27% of the indigenous occupants are noted to be paying more than 50% of their household income on rent, with only 23% of non-indigenous renters doing the same. Additionally, 8% of indigenous households live in overcrowded conditions, as compared to 5% of non-indigenous households. This shows that non-indigenous individuals and families are more likely to rent a place in Peterborough County because of their popularity in the township.
