Methodology

The composite risk score (0-100) is the average of five components:

  • Employment — Unemployment rate level + 6-month trend direction
  • Rental Vacancy — CMHC vacancy rate (both extremes = higher risk)
  • Supply Pipeline — Starts-to-completions ratio (high ratio = oversupply risk)
  • Interest Rate — BoC policy rate level (higher = mortgage stress)
  • Energy Dependency — 6-month energy price trend (Alberta's economic driver)

Scores: 0-24 = Low, 25-49 = Moderate, 50-74 = Elevated, 75-100 = High
