What this number does not show This is a model of a new buyer, not what current owners pay. BC Stats assumes a family earning the median after-tax family income (about $116,299 a year in Q2 2026) buys a home at the median sale price (about $851,170), with a 25-year variable-rate mortgage at the prime rate. One more limit Down payment: BC Stats' figures assume the buyer makes the minimum down payment allowed and borrows the rest over 25 years at the prime rate. BC Stats' technical note (May 2026) describes the minimum down payment in its approach and formula, but one section says zero down payment; recalculating the published figures shows they follow the minimum down payment (earlier versions of this site said “no down payment”, which was wrong). Buyers with larger down payments would pay less. Use it to follow the trend over time, not as an exact payment. Not measured yet in cost of living: rent in basement suites, rented condos and houses. See all 17 gaps
In plain words Down 2.5 points in a year. Up 7.8 points since Apr–Jun 2021.
The share of a typical family's after-tax income that the monthly mortgage would take if they bought a typical home today (BC Stats model of a new buyer).
How we decide “Better” The change is 5.2% of the earlier value, at or above the 5% threshold.
A lower number means buying a home takes a smaller share of a typical family's income, so it is more affordable. 45.2% in Q2 2026 compared with 47.7% in Q2 2025 (same quarter a year earlier).
Outcome measures read Better, Worse or About the same; published government targets read Ahead of, On or Behind target; value-judgement measures read Rising, Falling or Steady in a neutral colour. A change smaller than the agency's own margin of error, or otherwise smaller than 5% of the earlier value, is About the same (or Steady). No change is calculated across a marked break in a series. The rule .
All notes on this number Why it matters. It combines home prices, incomes and interest rates in one number, so it shows whether buying a home is getting easier or harder for a family starting out.
This is a model of a new buyer, not what current owners pay. BC Stats assumes a family earning the median after-tax family income (about $116,299 a year in Q2 2026) buys a home at the median sale price (about $851,170), with a 25-year variable-rate mortgage at the prime rate. Down payment: BC Stats' figures assume the buyer makes the minimum down payment allowed and borrows the rest over 25 years at the prime rate. BC Stats' technical note (May 2026) describes the minimum down payment in its approach and formula, but one section says zero down payment; recalculating the published figures shows they follow the minimum down payment (earlier versions of this site said “no down payment”, which was wrong). Buyers with larger down payments would pay less. Use it to follow the trend over time, not as an exact payment. Recent income figures are estimates that BC Stats revises as Statistics Canada releases new data, and home prices come from BC Assessment sales records, smoothed over three months. Small quarter-to-quarter changes can be revised. Covers all home types together (detached houses, townhouses and condos). The mix of homes sold can shift the median price. The area is the Victoria census metropolitan area (Greater Victoria), which is larger than the City of Victoria. The chart shows every year in BC Stats' file, from 2000. BC Stats' technical note describes the measure as built to be comparable over time; mortgage rules and lending conditions in the early years were different, which the model does not capture.
