Immigrants and Homelessness - A Risk in Canada's Outer Suburb: A Pilot Study in York Region (2009)
Publisher: CERIS, York University
The high cost of housing in the outer suburbs combined with immigrants' low incomes makes newcomers, particularly recent arrivals, vulnerable to homelessness because of the extreme financial burden posed by shelter costs. The proposed study will explore the social backgrounds and housing experiences of immigrant households that are vulnerable to and at risk of homelessness in outer suburbs.
