Is it cheaper to live in Toronto or Vancouver?

Question

Is it cheaper to live in Toronto or Vancouver?

Answer 1

These are the two most expensive places to live in Canada. And they seem to trade places every year for being the most expensive. Overall, you will find them so close, that the cost of living to choose between them is not an important factor.

But remember, while it is a little harder to find work in Vancouver, it is nowhere as cold in the winter in Vancouver.

Answer 2

According to wikipedia (in 2007 anyway), the answer is Vancouver: "In 2007, Vancouver was ranked Canada's second most expensive city to live after Toronto".  I haven't lived in either.  I've heard more often that Vancouver is a really expensive place to live than I've heard that about Toronto, but someone who's lived in both cities would have a way better idea than I would.

Answer 3

My friend here lived in both places for over 5 years each place.  Vancouver is more expensive than Toronto.

Answer 4

Answer 5

It is definitely cheaper to live in Toronto than Vancouver. Vancouver has high prices in housing for real estate. According to my personal knowledge, I heard that apartments in Downtown Vancouver are around $ 400,000 and up. With $ 400,000, you can buy a house in Toronto. Also in the Greater Toronto Area, apartments are priced around $ 150,000 and up.
