How expensive are apartements in Vancouver, preferrably with Boardwalk?

Question

I have to move there on short notice, and if anyone has a link to find apartements there, i'd be greatful.In general how expensive is life in vancouver?

Answer 1

Figure Toronto price plus $200-500 a month and as far as boardwalk, you will find that on a Monopoly game, for a seaside or waters edge view either right downtown, or English Bay area, but there it will be over $1000 a month for even a 1 bedroom and most are condo's now, I lived there in the 1980's and had a bachelor place on a street off of Robson down near Denman, it was furnished and for a quick and short notice issue may that is what to look into, it is pricey, but once your setup and have a abit save then you can look for a permanent place.

Answer 2

Apartments in the downtown core range in price from $1000 for a bachelor to over $4000 for a penthouse suite.

Transportation is getting better, so living in the South Vancouver area will be cheaper.

Check prices on craigslist.

By the way, stay away from the Downtown Eastside.(open drug deals, needles and prostitutes).

For food, you can get by on $50 ~ $60 a month.

Answer 3

Burnaby  and the other suburbs are cheaper
