Renter’s City Guide to Oakville
CITY GUIDE
OAKVILLE, ONTARIO
Located on the shore of Lake Ontario, Oakville covers over 138 square kilometres and is bordered by the communities of Burlington. More than 193,000 people live in this suburban community, which was established in 1827. Oakville has a small-town feel, despite its significant population, but offers many amenities for its residents. The city has a number of parks and creeks that are perfect for hiking or biking, and its location along Lake Ontario provides wonderful views.
Real Estate Market Overview
Oakville’s average housing prices tend to be mid-range, from $400,000 to $800,000. Large single-family homes and newer multi-family buildings make up the majority of the real estate options in the city’s northern, central, and southern sections, with many houses located on large lots. The central section (city centre) has a number of condo options, particularly near the lakeshore. The central and southern sections include some commercial properties (mostly retail), and there are high-priced vacant lots available in the southern section. Most areas also have townhouse properties.
Rental Market
The rental market in Oakville is in high demand, with vacancy rates sitting just over 1%. Bachelor apartments have the highest vacancy rate in Oakville, while one-bedroom apartments have the lowest. Lack of new rental buildings in this area has contributed to the low vacancy rate, and the average rent has been increasing to reflect the high demand for units. Rent increases have been most common for apartments with three or more bedrooms. Oakville has some of the highest rents in the region, with the average rent cost in the city ranging between $930 for a bachelor apartment and $1,700 for an apartment with three or more bedrooms. Newer apartment buildings fetch $100 to $200 more than units in older buildings do.

While many of Oakville’s residents commute to Toronto for work, the city has several major industries that make large contributions to the local economy. These include digital media and film, advanced manufacturing, professional and financial services, and life sciences. Major companies based in Oakville include Mattamy Homes and Tim Hortons, and several other large companies operate in the area, including The Ford Motor Company, Siemens, General Electric, and UTC Aerospace Systems. The Oakville Place Shopping Centre is also an important economic contributor, with around 100 shops and service providers located in its two-storey building.
