The cost of living in Barrie, Ontario

The cost of living is outrageous these days! It's a good idea to know what you're getting into when you're considering moving somewhere new.
In this video, Barrie Realtor Jacob Keogh of RE/MAX Hallmark Chay Realty shares the approximate costs of living in Barrie, Ontario today.
The average sale price of a home in Barrie, Ontario in 2022 was $750,000. Caveat: be careful with averages because one random ridiculously high or low sale price could drive this number in big way, leaving us with an unrealistic average.
The median sale price is a better number to pay attention to in our opinion and is sitting at $600,000 while the median rent cost in Barrie is $1800 per month.
On top of your rent or mortgage costs, you have to consider heat, hydro and gas (aka your utilities). A 900 sq. ft. space in Barrie, will run you about $270 per month. Then you've got water which goes up the more you use, internet, food, life needs, daycare etc to consider.
All this to say, living in Barrie Ontario ain't cheap! But it could be worse, right?! (ahem, Toronto)
