Sources and notes
- Source: CMHC Rental Market Survey, privately initiated apartment buildings of three or more units. Figures cover the whole metro area, not individual neighbourhoods: expect less in older buildings farther out and more in new towers near transit or downtown. Houses, basement suites and rooms are not in the survey, and asking rents on listing sites can be higher than these averages. Each neighbourhood page shows the average rent for its CMHC survey zone. ↩
