What Renting a 2-Bedroom Apartment Looks Like in Canada

Whether you’re starting out life as a grown-up or whether you’re downsizing, chances are that at some point in your life, you’ll live in a rental apartment. How much does that cost, though? Would it be easier on your bank account to rent or to just take the plunge and pay a mortgage? And how do rents differ across the country?

We’ve compared the average rates for November 2021 in 10 cities to show you what renting a 2-bedroom apartment looks like in Canada.
