Investing in Neepawa
Housing
Neepawa is facing an overall shortage of housing, as its population growth has outpaced housing development for the past two decades.
As our community grows, so do the possibilities for affordable, modern, and accessible housing. Higher-density housing offers diverse living options, from rental apartments to townhouses and affordable condominiums. This creates a vibrant housing continuum that meets the needs of individuals, young families, retirees, and newcomers alike.
By incorporating multi-family developments, we can maximize land use efficiently, reduce urban sprawl, and promote sustainability. More homes in less space means lower infrastructure costs and better public services, while still maintaining Neepawa’s close-knit community feel.
Families can enjoy a safe and inclusive environment, with easier access to parks, schools, and essential services – all within walking distance. This encourages active lifestyles and stronger community connections.

Population Growth Rates Compared to Private Dwelling Growth Rates
“Neepawa is facing an overall shortage of housing, as its population growth has outpaced housing development for the last two decades. On top of this, Neepawa, like the rest of the Canada, is grappling with rising costs of housing and the recent trend of increased borrowing costs. Renters in Neepawa appear to have an acute need for more affordable options. Increasing the supply of rental unit development and more affordable ownership options, such as row housing, apartments, and townhome units, should be encouraged.“ – Scatliff + Miller + Murray Housing Needs and Demands Study 2023
