## Amenity Distribution in Saint-Georges

The neighbourhood records 30 mapped amenity points across five categories. Transit stops account for 15 of these points, while parks contribute 7 locations. Recreation facilities make up 5 points, schools 2, and a single grocery store completes the set. These counts reflect the total attributed to the area in the source dataset.

Specific named locations include École Dominique Savio, Parc Gervais, and Aréna Émile-Bédard. Other entries list generic labels such as Park or Recreation without unique identifiers. The concentration of transit stops suggests multiple street-level access points. However, the data does not specify routes, frequencies, or operational status for these stops. Sources:

## City market context

From the Shawinigan market article, 22 September 2026:

Shawinigan recorded 479 housing starts in 2025, nearly double the 241 started in 2024, with 81% of the new construction focused on apartment and other multi-unit homes. This surge in multi-unit starts signals a significant shift in the local supply pipeline toward rental product, even as national financing pressures continue to weigh on broader affordability. Shawinigan's 2025 housing starts surged to 479 units, a 98.8% increase from 241 in 2024, with 81% of those starts being apartment and other multi-unit homes. This indicates a sharp shift toward rental-oriented supply in the local construction pipeline, which may influence future rental availability but does not directly measure current owner-occupied price dynamics.
