Rent in Huron County's seniors homes is going up in January.
Administrator Connie Townsend says the rent is going up by 1.8% and that's based on the provincial Rent Control Guideline which they follow.
The rent is increased annually and the announcement is made a couple of months before it goes into effect.
Townsend also points out the rent is the only payment tenants make and the rent includes 15 meals a month and one hour of housekeeping a week.
This increase will take effect in January of 2018.
