Hello people from the Lemmyverse.

This September I will move out to Montreal for a Ph.D. Internship program that lasts until December. I have searched the costs of living but much of the content is outdated and not trusty enough for my taste.

How much should I expect to pay in Rent, Groceries, Transportation and in a Gym membership? Given that I will be there for work, I will not make tourism in anywhere fancy or expensive, I hope.

What I am most worried is the costs of rent. I am ok in sharing a place, not a room, with a bunch of people - needing only to be cheap.

My total budget is between 1400~1800 CAD per month.

If anyone can help me with that, I would be glad. Thanks :)

    Thanks for the tips! Probably will try Bixi, given that the city looks bike-friendly. I was already planning to live in Laval, here in Brazil I am used to move from a city to another to do stuff. I am keeping an eye on facebook, but thanks for the tip on Kijiji. Google was only pointint me to Roomies dot ca or Uniplaces
