The City of Montreal's 2017 budget includes an average increase in residential property tax rates of 1.7 per cent, but the increase varies from borough to borough.

The property tax rates, combined with property evaluations, are used to determine the amount owners must pay in in municipal property taxes. 

These are the boroughs with the highest average increases for 2017. Two boroughs - L'Île-Bizard–Sainte-Geneviève and Montréal-Nord - will see an increase of just 1 per cent. (Hélène Simard/CBC)
