GTA Municipalities

Census Data Dept: More than 75 per cent of 20- to 29-year-olds in GTA municipalities such as Richmond Hill, King City, Pickering, Vaughan and Caledon are still living with their parents, according to newly released census data , according to The Star. But the 905 nesting phenomenon appears to be far more cultural and financial than that old cliche of boomerang kids failing to launch and it seems those suburban homes sprawled across the 905 regions are big for a reason their childhood bedrooms and converted basements are packed with kids in their 20s still living at home. That s considerably more than the 56.3 per cent of 20-somethings who are still living at home in Toronto and the 42.3 per cent across Canada the 2011 census shows. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
