Paris Population & Community Growth

Paris is one of Southwestern Ontario’s fastest-growing small towns, known for its scenic Grand River views, historic architecture, and welcoming atmosphere. According to the 2021 Census, Paris has approximately 14,000 residents, with steady growth driven by new subdivisions and its appeal to families seeking a quieter lifestyle near major cities.

Between 2016 and 2021, the broader County of Brant grew by over 10%, with Paris contributing significantly to that expansion. As more people relocate to the area for affordability and small-town charm, home inspections have become essential for ensuring buyers understand both the opportunities and the quirks of Paris’s blend of older homes and new developments.

Housing & Dwelling Types in Paris

Paris offers a diverse mix of housing styles, reflecting both its heritage roots and its rapid modern growth. The community includes:

Paris’s housing stock ranges from 19th-century brick homes near the river to brand-new builds in areas like Paris West and Pinehurst. Each type comes with its own inspection priorities—from aging foundations and electrical systems in heritage homes to construction quality reviews in newer builds.

Median Home Age in Paris

Paris has a unique mix of older character homes and rapidly expanding new neighbourhoods. Many of the homes close to downtown and along the Grand River were built before 1970, offering charm but often requiring updates to electrical, plumbing, and insulation systems. In contrast, large modern subdivisions built after 2010 have significantly lowered the average home age in the community. This blend of historic and contemporary construction means home inspections in Paris can vary widely depending on the neighbourhood.

Paris Home Inspection FAQ

Yes. Paris is a popular community for families and commuters, and home inspections are a standard step in nearly all real estate transactions. Buyers rely on inspections to identify potential issues, especially in older character homes found near the downtown core.

Paris homes often include older masonry construction, aging electrical systems, moisture concerns in basements, and older plumbing. Many century homes have been renovated over the years, so identifying past workmanship or outdated materials is an important part of the inspection process.

Definitely. Newer subdivisions in north and east Paris are built quickly to meet demand. Even new builds can have minor defects, incomplete finishing, or installation issues with HVAC, roofing, or insulation. A professional inspection ensures your new home performs as expected.

A typical home inspection in Paris starts around $399, depending on the home's age, size, and construction type. Larger rural properties or century homes may require additional time. See our pricing page for full details.
