By itself, Waterloo has a population of 104,986 people according to the 2016 census.

Waterloo, Ontario Real Estate
In the past few years, Waterloo has seen a dramatic increase in real estate sales. This is because a large number of new residents are ones that have left the Greater Toronto Area in favour of a quieter and more affordable city. While the demand has been at an all time high, the housing inventory has been unable to keep up. When a desirable home is listed, the interest and competition is high and it won’t stay on the market for long. For the purpose of collecting and sharing real estate statistics, Kitchener and Waterloo are considered together in determining the average price of a home in either city. By the end of 2020, the year-to-date average price of a residential property was about $612,000. This number comes from factoring in the average of the most expensive property type: detached at about $719,000, apartment-style condos at $391,000 and the average for townhouses and semi-detached homes at about $468,000.
