Wow, Welland had 759 new dwelling unit starts in 2021. For a city of currently ~56,000 (and seen as "less desirable" in Niagara) that's quite a bit.

A comparison of the past


So Welland in 2009 went from ~500 total construction permits, 116 new units of residential construction and $80 Million value/yr to

2021: 1108 total permits, 759 new units of residential construction, $245 Million in value.
A mixture of single family, duplex/semi-detached, townhouse, apartment and condo.
