Immigration targets have risen steadily in recent years. Last year, the government released a plan to grant permanent residency to 465,000 people in 2023, a figure that would rise to 500,000 by 2025.

The immigration target for 2015 was under 300,000.

    Yeah that’s definitely a thing not being accounted for. Best I got is this. It only tracks demos from places with over 50K people and it also includes comercial->residential and residential->commercial re-purposing. If my quick math is right The grand total of all the data they have is only 2K so I don’t think it makes a huge difference.
