Each is broken down for how much it costs to rent a studio apartment, a one-bedroom unit, a two-bedroom, or a three-bedroom.

Toronto is the most expensive place on the infographic, topping every other city in every single category.

Renting a studio apartment costs $942 per month in the 6ix, while a one-bedroom costs $1,110, a two-bedroom $1,301 and a three-bedroom $1,531.
