1 Bedroom Apartment for Rent in New Westminster
$2,150 / month
A 622 ft² one-bedroom apartment in New Westminster, asking $2,150 a month. The listing mentions mountain and city views, in-suite laundry and parking included. It leaves 2 obvious questions unanswered, starting with: what floor is it on?

That is $300 above the middle of the 123 comparable rentals we are tracking in New Westminster, where most ask between $1,700 and $2,030.
The details
Highlights
Ask before you view
The advertisement doesn’t say, and it matters:
- What floor is it on?
- Which way does it face?
Roughly where it is
Approximate — listings rarely give an exact address, so treat this as the block, not the door.
Renting in New Westminster
New West is consistently cheaper than Burnaby for a comparable building, and it has five SkyTrain stations for a city of this size.
How this compares
Location
22 min on foot to New Westminster (Expo Line), about 52 min to Waterfront.
Scored from the map pin alone — rapid transit, town centres and parks, in straight lines. It knows nothing about the street, the hill, the building or the neighbours, and buses and the SeaBus are not in it, so places served by those score lower here than they deserve.
Against the ones next to it
$2,150 is $300 above the middle of the 123 one-bedrooms we are tracking in New Westminster right now ($1,850). Most of them ask between $1,700 and $2,030.
A straight count of asking prices in the area, with nothing adjusted for — it does not care that this one may be bigger, smaller or better placed than the rest.
What the estimate cannot see
Floor, view, condition, noise and everything inside the walls are missing from all but a handful of the advertisements we index, so none of them are priced in above. Two identical floor plans, one renovated and one not, get the same estimate from us.
This one is unusually forthcoming. It does state:
Worth reading — but too rare across the feed for us to put a number on.

Counted from the listings on this site, not a market survey, and from asking rents — what a home is advertised at, not what it lets for.
