Fort McMurray Rentals

Thanks to the nearby Athabasca oil sands, Fort McMurray has a strong local economy and rents are higher than the Alberta average, especially considering the remote location.

Families hunting for a home to rent in Fort McMurray will want to look closely at the Abasund neighbourhood. There are several quality schools and most amenities can be found on nearby Franklin Avenue. If you’re looking for larger neighbourhoods, ideal places to rent in Fort McMurray include Lower Townsite and Thickwood and Beacon Hill. Lower Townsite offers places to rent close to the Northern Lights Regional Health Centre ideal for those working close by. Beacon Hill is perfect for outdoors enthusiasts, with nature trails and parks nearby. It is very popular for family rentals due to two schools and the range of family friendly housing.

The Thickwood neighbourhood is popular with families and professionals renting a home alike due to the higher number of recreation and shopping options. Another neighbourhood that RentCanada recommends in Fort McMurray is Timberlea which has come a long way from the 2016 fire damage. You will find amenities close by but the biggest appeal for this community is its convenient access to the downtown core for those commuting for work. Lastly Wood Buffalo Estates is a neighbourhood that again offers parks and nature trails to escape and a quiet escape from the busiest of the downtown core.
