Toronto
Known for its cultural diversity, sports and entertainment, restaurants, weekend festivals, and our gorgeous skyline, Toronto attracts over 27 Million visitors annually. With 46 kms of waterfront, 158 neighborhoods, and 6 boroughs (previous municipalities amalgamated into one city), there seems to be no shortage of things to see and do.
Unfortunately, Toronto is also the most expensive City in Canada, and 89th most expensive city in the World according to a recent Mercer report based on cost of living. With sky-high housing prices and rocketing inflation, I’m sure you didn’t need a survey to tell you everything is getting darn expensive.
