9 h. ago Toronto rent prices continue to fall and are the cheapest they've been in years

Though Toronto is still very far from being considered an affordable place to live, rent prices in the city have been on a consistent downward trajectory for many months now, and the latest figures from March 2025 are no different.By the end of 2024, the average cost of an apartment in the Big Smoke had plummeted to the cheapest level it had been in more than two years, which has now extended into a whopping 32-month low.New reports from listing platforms like Zumper and Rentals.ca show that though it's still far pricier to nab a place in the GTA than almost anywhere else in the country, tenants are being afforded more financial wiggle room than they have in previous years, with the monthly rent of all sizes of units ever-lowering while the real estate market falters.As of last month, the typical one-bedroom unit in the region has dropped to around $2,300, marking a small reduction both month-over-month and year-over-year (by 0.4 per cent and ...

As the spring weather blooms into full effect, Toronto residents are eagerly awaiting one of the most highly anticipated events — the cherry blossoms in High Park.Local cherry blossom expert, Sakura Steve, has been keeping his weekly updates, and given an update on when we can expect the cherry blossoms to hit full bloom.After a recent visit to High Park, he showcased that the current buds are sitting at Stage Two in their blooming process. That means little progress has been made from last week's green-tipped babies into fuller, rounder buds — but that’s a good thing.Because Toronto experienced colder-than-usual weather during April, this stage of the process has kept the buds safe and secure to combat the harsher climate.Steven notes that, if the buds had progressed to Stage Three or Four, they would've likely been damaged.But this comes with the downside of the cherry blossoms being stuck at Stage Two, delaying their development by a short while — as ...
