Calgary remains one of the cheapest cities to rent in Canada

Looking to save some cash? Move to Calgary.

The largest city in Alberta has retained its ranking among the cheapest spots to rent in Canada.

While we may have some particularly brutal winter weather, that just makes us appreciate our stunning summers even more, right?

Plus, staying inside during the cold season lets us save a little money while we aren’t being gouged by rent costs.
