The rankings for this list are a combination of the average cost for both two- and one-bedroom apartments, but for this we’ll just be focusing on the one-bedroom costs. So, without further ado.

Here are the nine cheapest neighbourhoods to rent in Metro Vancouver with their average rent for a one-bedroom

1. Guilford Town Centre, Surrey: $1,357

What surprised us, is that some Vancouver neighbourhoods made the cut! Goes to show you the city is 100% gentrified. For reference, Guilford Town Centre has an average rent of $1,357 for a one-bedroom. So, still pretty darn pricey! I suppose that’s the price of living in our modern world.
