Households
Student households made up 17.8% of households in Ville-Marie and 15.8% on the Plateau in 2021, more than twice the City of Montréal share of 7.7%.[1][2]
Student residence
McGill's 2026–2027 handbook for first-year downtown residences sets the move-in period for 20–23 August 2026; winter exams end 30 April 2027 and the residence lease ends 2 May 2027.[3]
Student residence
McGill residences offer no storage beyond what fits in the room, and large extra furniture brought into a room is removed on sight and a fee charged, because it is treated as a fire hazard.[3][4]
Student residence
Concordia's residence move-in day for fall 2026 is 29 August 2026; residents book an arrival date and time slot through an email sent in mid-August, and cannot stay in residence before their lease starts.[5][6]
Parking
At Concordia's downtown Sir George Williams campus, move-in vehicles unload at the Grey Nuns Residence entrance at 1200 rue Guy, then must park on the street or in a nearby lot; at Loyola, cars may park in front of each residence building.[6]
Student residence
UQAM's two residences, at 303 boulevard René-Lévesque Est and 2100 rue Saint-Urbain, rent fully furnished units with bed, desk, sofa, fridge, stove and kitchen table; tenants bring their own dishes, bedding and kitchenware.[7][8]
