Housing & Rental Market

Statistics Canada Table 34-10-0133 (Rents) - Table 34-10-0127 (Vacancy) - Reference year 2025

Note: figures are single-year vintages. StatCan and CMHC do not publish ACS-style rolling 5-year housing averages, the long-form Census of Population every 5 years (2016, 2021) plays the equivalent precision role.

CMHC Average Rents by Bedroom

18.3%
Annual Rent (2BR) as % of Median Household Income - Affordable
30% threshold = "cost-burdened" (CMHC / HUD convention). Computed from $1,210 average 2BR rent × 12 / $79,500 household income.
Bachelor
$776/mo
1 Bedroom
$964/mo
2 Bedroom
$1,210/mo
3+ Bedroom
$1,420/mo
30% of monthly median household income (~$1,988/mo), rents above this line are typically considered cost-burdened.
Note: this region has no Census Metropolitan Area or Census Agglomeration covered by the CMHC Rental Market Survey. Values shown are the unweighted average across all CMHC-surveyed centres in Manitoba.
