Here's the approximate breakdown for a single guy (again this is if you live economically)
Rent = $400 (sharing) / $650-700 (Basement apartment) / $850 (1BR Apartment in a regular area)
Groceries = $200
Transportation (Transit) = $150
Miscellaneous = $200
If you buy a used car for lets say $3000, you subtract the Transit cost, and add $150 for fuel and $250 for Insurance. BTW my office is in Mississauga too (Derry and Goreway crossing)

Hope this helps.
Hi,
If you dont mind, may i ask if the rent for sharing amounting to $400 can accommodate a family of 4? with 2 kids of 6 & 5. I also plan to land in Toronto.
The transpo of $150 is already for a monthly expense estimate? Thank you.

Thank God you're back! I've been following this thread as I'm currently researching all about toronto as we have decided to settle there

I hope you could share more info regarding living specifically in downtown toronto.

We really need to look for an elementary school which have apartments across or just a block away? Something that would just be accessible for all of us.

Well this is a very specific request. This is something you can ONLY find out after landing here. In downtown, you can rent an apartment from $850 to $6000 a month or even more, depending on the area. Most areas do have schools, but not sure about a school "Across" an apartment building. Here's the link for schools in Toronto:

Not being of much help here...apologize.

No. Sharing accommodation is usually one room for yourself (single person or best case-a couple) with common area and Kitchen. Landlords would be reluctant to accommodate a family in one room. Also there are City by-laws, which prohibit such kind of cramming up.
