3 h. ago There are 4 places in the GTA that cost more to live in than Toronto

When it comes to the cost of living in Canada, Toronto often takes the spotlight as one of the priciest places to call home. With its bustling downtown core, soaring condo prices, and ever-rising rent, it's no surprise many assume it tops the charts for affordability challenges, but this isn't quite the case. One would be forgiven for thinking that Toronto is the most expensive city in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA), but other cities in the region regularly top the 416 in average cost of living. A recent MoneySense report reveals four cities that surpass Toronto among the most expensive places to live in the GTA, and a couple of them don't come as a huge surprise to anyone paying attention to regional home prices and the increase in living costs. Richmond HillAn aerial view of a residential street in Richmond Hill.

There are some major deals to be had for those wading into the Toronto real estate market these days — at least, when contrasted against the prices of just a few years ago — with the vast majority of the few homes switching hands now going for far under asking price.The newest reports from August 2025 show homes in the region are going for tens of thousands of dollars less than they were last year, with average prices ranging from $642,195 for a condo to $1.3 million for a standalone house — the latter especially, still nothing to scoff at, but a notable 7.5 per cent cheaper than this time last year.But regardless of how much GTA homes have depreciated in value and which areas are being the most drastically underbid, one may wonder what neighbourhoods have the cheapest properties overall in terms of dollar amount right now.Once again, local property platform Wahi has surveyed the market and has released a ...
