Mississauga Rent by Bedroom (2026)
What renters actually pay by bedroom count, and how much it swings across the city's 24 neighbourhoods — straight from the same model that scores every listing here.
The short answer
Rent in Mississauga rises steadily with bedroom count, but the bigger swing is by location: the gap between the city's most affordable and most expensive neighbourhoods for the same bedroom count is often $700–$1,000/mo. The table below shows the average, lowest and highest neighbourhood for each bedroom count, computed from the site's own rent model.

Rent by bedroom: common questions
How much does a 2-bedroom apartment rent for in Mississauga?
It varies a lot by neighbourhood. Across the 24 neighbourhoods this site tracks, the typical range runs from the low $2,500s in the most affordable areas up to $3,200+ near the waterfront and downtown core, with a city-wide average in between. The table on this page shows the current average, lowest and highest by bedroom count — sort by the neighbourhood guides for a specific area’s number.
Browse all neighbourhood guides →Which Mississauga neighbourhood has the lowest rent?
Malton consistently has the lowest rent across every bedroom count in this model, which is also why it shows the strongest rental yields for investors on this site — a low purchase price paired with genuinely low rent, not an inflated one. Areas near the waterfront and GO stations (Port Credit, Mineola, Lorne Park) sit at the top of the range — those are priced more for appreciation than for cash flow.
Why does rent vary so much between neighbourhoods for the same bedroom count?
Location drives rent independently of purchase price: proximity to transit (GO stations, the Hurontario LRT corridor), employer density near Pearson Airport and City Centre, school catchments, and general desirability all matter to a tenant the way they matter to a buyer. Two 3-bedroom homes can rent for very different amounts even at similar purchase prices — which is exactly why cap rate, not price alone, is what determines whether a property is a good rental investment.
Does a legal basement suite change these numbers?
Substantially — a legal second suite adds a separate rent cheque on top of the main unit’s rent shown here, which is what moves many Mississauga properties from negative to positive cash flow. The figures on this page are for the main unit only; listings flagged with a legal or potential suite show the combined total on their own page.
How are these rent estimates calculated?
They come from the same per-neighbourhood, per-bedroom model that estimates cash flow and cap rate on every listing across the site, periodically checked against real, recently-leased MLS comparables and adjusted where the evidence shows a meaningful gap — see the score methodology page for the full calculation. They are estimates, not a guarantee for any specific unit; condition, parking, and exact location all move the number.
