Housing & Rental Market

Statistics Canada Table 34-10-0133 (Rents) - Table 34-10-0127 (Vacancy) - Reference year 2025

Note: figures are single-year vintages. StatCan and CMHC do not publish ACS-style rolling 5-year housing averages, the long-form Census of Population every 5 years (2016, 2021) plays the equivalent precision role.

CMHC Average Rents by Bedroom

Source: Statistics Canada Table 34-10-0133 - 2025
19.5%
Annual Rent (2BR) as % of Median Household Income - Affordable
30% threshold = "cost-burdened" (CMHC / HUD convention). Computed from $1,346 median 2BR rent × 12 / $83,000 household income.
1 Bedroom
$1,228/mo
2 Bedroom
$1,346/mo
3+ Bedroom

30% of monthly median household income (~$2,075/mo), rents above this line are typically considered cost-burdened.

Key Takeaways
  • Affordable rental market: Annual 2BR rent eats 19.5% of median household income, well below the 30% cost-burdened threshold; supports talent attraction.
