Dear future neighbour,
First off, British Columbia (BC) is not generally considered one of the most affordable provinces in Canada, especially when it comes to housing costs. Cities like Vancouver, in particular, are known for their high cost of living, including expensive real estate and rental prices. The cost of living in BC, including housing, transportation, and other expenses, tends to be higher compared to other provinces in Canada.
In the city of Prince George as well as Salmon Arm, you can rent a three bedroom apartment for as low as $1,800 on the city centre. This is according to statistics available on Numbeo.com gathered from the residents of the city.
See below in descending order the full list of the cities where you can rent a 3 bedroom apartment for $2,550 or lower in the city centre in the province of BC:
- Maple Ridge – $2,550
- Courtenay – $2,500
- Powell River – $2,500
- Vernon – $2,350
- Penticton – $2,312
- Cranbrook- $ 2,269
- Chilliwack – $2,225
- Williams Lake – $1,900
- Prince George – $1,800
- Salmon Arm – $1,800
Unfortunately, accommodation affordability cannot be the only factor you consider when moving to a new city. For the next month, we will review these factors and recommend cities based on statistics to help you make an informed decision.
