Toronto is Canada’s second most unaffordable city for renting, but it’s not entirely impossible to live here on a budget. There are still plenty of cheap apartments in Toronto that don’t require living with roommates or in a barely-habitable unit with mysterious stains everywhere.

These are some of the cheapest apartments listed on Rentals.ca, to remind you that not all hope is lost when it comes to (relatively) affordable living in Toronto.
