Average expenses for an Edmonton local/Albertan/Canadian?

Question

I am thinking of moving out. Can someone please tell me the approximate minimum cost of:

1. rent for a 1 bedroom apartment

2. water/electricity

3. insurance (in general)

...here in Edmonton? Thanks a bunch! :)

Answer 1

Well, I'll go with estimates for you here.

- 1 Bedroom Apartment ~ $900.00 (Usually includes Water & heat)

- Power (Totally dependant on your usage ~ $40.00

- (Tenant) Insurance $13.00 a month for $40,000 Coverage

Prices vary depending on where you live in the city when it comes to renting, however most places are between $800-$1000 for a one bedroom apartment in Edmonton.  Boardwalk Equities pretty much controls the majority of rentals.

We pay $13.00 a month for $45,000 worth of coverage for tenant insurance, which is more than enough for most individuals or young/small families.
