$775/month plus $30-40 for electricity (heat and water are included in the rent). One-bedroom apartment in a central neighbourhood in Edmonton, AB, Canada. Rents got jacked up about 2 years ago because the economic and real estate market got hot (I used to pay $650 for a two-bedroom in the same building, I moved into the one-bedroom because they jacked the rent up to $975/month and I had broken up with my girlfriend at the time, so had no one to split the increased rent with).
Unfortunately, when the market dropped, rents didn't decrease to match.
This probably seems like a really high rent to a lot of people in less expensive parts of the country/world, but it's actually pretty reasonable for the area. I could get a cheaper place if I moved up the road into a neighbourhood where people like to kill each other for fun, or to a neighbourhood that is not very central, but I like where I live and the rent is good for the area and even for the city in general.
