According to a recent liv.rent report, Montreal's average rent is now well over the $1,000 mark, but plenty of renters pay just around one grand each month to keep themselves sheltered. Not every $1,000 apartment is made equal, though — different neighbourhoods have vastly different rental markets, with floor space, number of rooms and other amenities varying widely across the island, even at a similar price point.
Here's a snapshot of apartments currently on the market in Montreal, in neighbourhoods from LaSalle to Villeray. Each listing advertises approximately $1,000 in monthly rent. Leeway was given in either direction, especially for cheaper apartments that are visibly much nicer than their $1,000 competitors.
Each apartment is either a one-bedroom or studio, some with more living space than others.
