A lot of people with 1-2 kids (which is the norm amount these days) would like to purchase a townhouse in urban areas. The fact demand for any type of property in places like Toronto and Vancouver is so high speaks to that. A lot of people in urban areas are having children. In fact, I'd argue that people who's primary choice when having children to resettle in a smaller town or suburb are the minority. Most do so, as they are forced to.
