Over 25% of Greater Montreal Adults Fell into Poverty 2016‑2023
More than 25% of Greater Montreal adults were in poverty at some time between 2016 and 2023, according to a new study. Annual figures that record only one year may overlook such intermittent poverty.

A new study finds that more than a quarter of adults in Greater Montreal experienced poverty at some point during the eight-year period from 2016 to 2023.
The findings note that annual poverty statistics that capture only a single year can miss individuals who fall into poverty intermittently over multiple years.
