Finding affordable rental housing remains a challenge for newcomers to Canada and international students.
While rent prices have moderated in the popular “Gateway Cities” of Toronto and Vancouver (still the two most expensive cities in Canada!), rents in other parts of the country, particularly in Alberta, have been rising steadily.
Still, affordable rents can be found in many large and mid-sized Canadian cities, as you’ll see in this newsletter.
