The Thunder Bay guide

Superior's harbour city and Sleeping Giant. As northern Ontario, where lakes, bush and short drives to everything are the norm, Thunder Bay spreads across 9 named communities, and the difference between them is usually what decides where people buy.

Expect a mix of detached houses, semis and townhomes, with newer subdivisions on the edges. The older, more central pockets tend to hold value best.

Right now there are 409 homes for sale in Thunder Bay around a median asking price of $399,900, plus 24 rentals near $1,100 a month. Every community below has its own guide with the homes available there today.

Good to know before you shortlist

  • Property taxes, water and heating costs differ across Northern Ontario — factor them into your monthly number, not just the price.
  • Newer subdivisions can still be finishing roads, parks and schools; older pockets have them already.
  • Ask how long the trip to work really takes at 8am, not at noon.

Who Thunder Bay suits

  • Buyers who want space for the money
  • Outdoor families
  • People relocating for work

Getting around

  • Local bus service in town
  • Regional airports for longer trips
  • Highways 11, 17 and 69
