## Amenity Inventory Composition

The neighbourhood profile lists forty-one distinct amenity points attributed to Waverley. Recreation facilities dominate this count with twenty-three entries, followed by eleven transit stops. These figures represent the total mapped presence within the defined geographic boundary as of the current dataset update date.

Schools and parks form smaller but distinct categories within the inventory. Three schools are named, including École élémentaire L'Odyssée and Edward Johnson Public School. Two parks are also listed, one of which is specifically named Waverley Drive Park in the source records provided for this analysis period now ending soon. Sources:

## Service Point Distribution

Transit infrastructure appears frequently in the mapped data with eleven stop locations recorded. Several stops are identified by street intersections such as Metcalfe at Waverley southbound. This density suggests a structured network, though the data does not confirm route frequency or operational schedules for these specific points in the area today.

Daily living services include one grocery store named FreshCo and one childcare facility called Kensington Y Child Care. The remaining recreation points lack specific names in the provided list, appearing only as generic labels. This limitation prevents detailed assessment of the specific types of recreational activities available to residents in Waverley currently. Sources:

## City market context

From the Guelph market article, 11 October 2026:

Months of inventory for Guelph apartments reached 9.8 months at the end of Q4 2025. This represents a significant increase from 3.9 months recorded in Q4 2024. The Guelph apartment market shifted toward greater buyer leverage in late 2025 as months of inventory more than doubled year-over-year.
