One guy I met is renting a 2 bedroom apartment for $3,000 a month. Another is renting a single room in someone's basement for $800 a month. I haven't done too much looking on my own. I just want to work here and live elsewhere.
There are definitely locals who have made lots of money off of this, mainly people who owned real estate and mineral rights before it started. From what I've heard even they left town once they got their money.
Yes, on the canadian side I know a girl who was doing health care work in northern alberta pre oil boom and owned a house. She rented out all of the rooms except hers for a while to all dudes...and she was hot...eventually she sold the house for 5x what she bought it for, moved and paid for a downtown condo in some city.
