Ottawa lifestyle, investment, and rental notes

Lifestyle

Ottawa is bilingual, cold, and organised around the canal and river. The Glebe and Westboro are the inner lifestyle addresses. Gatineau, Quebec, is a cheaper housing option across the bridges.

Investment

Government employment stabilises demand versus energy cities. Condos downtown compete with suburban houses. This is not a tourism-yield market.

Rentals and development

Public-sector and student lets are the backbone. LRT corridors are repositioning some inner suburbs. Kanata remains the tech-house story.
