That depends on the location. You will pay more in the big cities than the suburbs for example.

It is for sure more expensive than here. Also most rentals do not include furnishings. Some do though if you look hard enough but usually cost more per month.

Pick the area you want to go to here:

Then click on the apts / housing section to get some examples of what is available.

Good luck!

yea i no what ya mean bud. suppose your taking 1500-2000 then a month and nearly all of these will be unfurnished. so its going to be a fair chunk of money.

Keep an eye on Kijiji

Some here in the $1000 to $1300 range not from Calgary so dont know areas but that should start you off

Beware of scams though ie really cheap downtown apartments and people who want cash up fromnt before you even see the place
