Average savings per household in Canada 2000-2024, by age group
Households where the major income earner was from 35 to 44 years old had the highest amount of net savings in 2024. That segment saved on average nearly * Canadian dollars that year alone. Households of individuals older than 64 had negative net savings amounting to * Canadian dollars, which means that their expenses were higher than their revenue. These figures do not show the overall value of savings accumulated in bank accounts and other assets, but the amount of money that households managed to save in a single year.
