What $1,000 A Month For Rent Will Get You Across Edmonton (PHOTOS)
No matter if you are looking for your first apartment or something more spacious than your tiny bachelor, we've got you covered. Luckily for us, our city is much more affordable to live in compared to cities like Toronto or Vancouver. You might be surprised by how many fantastic Edmonton apartments you can get right now for $1,000 a month.
A recent rental report by Rentals.ca says the forecasted average apartment will cost you $1,207 in 2020. But, you'll still find an impressive number of listing way below that price.
Naturally, prices rise in popular areas like the downtown core and near The University of Alberta. But if you are willing to travel a bit further, you might be able to upgrade to a two-bedroom for the same cost.
Ultimately you'll need to decide what is most important to you. Would you like a breathtaking view of the Alberta Legislature Building, a yard for your dog, or somewhere with parking for your car?
Who knows, maybe you'll even find somewhere cheaper than where you currently reside. That way, you could put your extra savings towards buying a house or treating yourself to an afternoon tea.
To help you with your apartment search, we've created a list of apartments from a variety of neighbourhoods you can get for $1,000.
