Smaller Cities In Canada Are Luring In More And More Immigrants

Ask plenty of people around who are interested in moving to Canada as immigrants and they would most probably say that if they are able to make that move to this country, they would choose to go to one of the biggest cities of the country. Although there are plenty of cities in Canada, people would most likely choose to go to the biggest ones because that is where they can find more opportunities. And that is not surprising because big cities usually are where businesses decide to set up shop so the opportunities are seemingly endless here.

 

The most popular destinations for immigrants in Canada include Vancouver, Toronto, Calgary, and Montreal. But it is quite surprising that recently, more and more immigrants are choosing to go to some of the smaller cities of the countries rather than go to the bigger ones. Smaller cities in Canada have also needed immigrants but were unable to bring in as much as they wanted to. However, recently, it seems like they are able to do that.

 

The immigrants joining Canada’s smaller cities

 

From 2013 until 2019, more and more immigrants have started to choose to go to smaller cities in Canada. They would also choose to go to smaller areas and centers that were urbanized. In 2019, the number of immigrants who chose to go to the smaller urbanized areas in Canada had gone up by around 45% as compared to the number in 2013. This is surely a huge amount in comparison to the 4% increase that the bigger cities in the country had experienced in 2019 as compared to 2013.

 

This definitely is a reflection of how the programs of Canada’s smaller cities to bring in more immigrants are working. It also shows that more and more immigrants are becoming aware that there are also good opportunities available in other parts of the country that are not categorized as a big city. This is also good because smaller areas would also mean a lower cost of living as compared to the bigger cities.

 

The situation in bigger cities

 

Toronto is definitely one of the biggest cities of this country and it is also the recipient of one of the biggest numbers of immigrants joining each year. In fact, the immigration rate for Toronto is 163 for every 10,000 residents. Coming close to Toronto is Vancouver. This city in Canada also has a high immigration rate which his at around 128 immigrants for every 10,000 residents. For the smaller urbanized areas like Regina, the area has an immigration rate of around 193 immigrants for every 10,000 residents. Saskatoon also has a high immigration rate which is at around 178 immigrants for every 10,000 residents.
