The price of rent in 琉璃神社 has increased more than any other major city in Canada this year.
鈥溋鹆裆 remains a highly desirable place to live with a strong demand for housing, and this demand was reflected in home prices and rental rate increases in 2021,鈥 said Arlene Janousek, 琉璃神社 city planner.
Zumper鈥檚 annual report analyzed hundreds of thousands of listings last month to examine median rent prices across the 23 largest cities in the country.
The price of a one-bedroom increased by 21.6 percent and the rent of a two-bedroom place in 琉璃神社 is up by 23.6 percent since May 2021.
According to Zumper, 琉璃神社 was ranked as the fourth most expensive rental market in the nation last month with the prices of one and two-bedrooms at $1,800 and $2,200 on average, respectively.
Janousek said that 2021 saw low rental vacancy at 0.6 percent, indicating there is more demand for rental units than currently available. The city plans to build 3,300 rental units this year to meet the high demand.
