## Supporting Services and Daily Needs

Three school points are mapped in Fringewood South, including Jean-Paul II Catholic Elementary School and Kanata Academy. Four childcare centres appear in the dataset, such as Dolphin Tale Child Care and Imagination Station Preschool. These counts establish presence only and do not confirm catchment areas, capacity or household composition alignment.

Grocery options include three mapped stores: No Frills, Food Basics and Green Fresh Supermarket Kanata. The absence of dog park points in the 21 park entries is noted in the category breakdown. All figures derive from OpenStreetMap Overpass API data and represent static point locations rather than dynamic service metrics. Sources:

## City market context

From the Ottawa market article, 22 September 2026:

Ottawa's August 2026 sales-to-new-listings ratio dropped to 47.3% citywide, with apartments lagging at 43.0%. The 4.3-point gap between segments reveals where buyer leverage is forming before headline prices move. Ottawa's August 2026 sales-to-new-listings ratio fell to 47.3% citywide while apartments recorded 43.0%, a 4.3-point gap that signals weaker absorption in the condo segment even as composite benchmark prices held near flat. This divergence matters because it identifies where buyer leverage is emerging before it shows up in headline price indices.
