If you've ever wondered what the least exciting, yet still incredibly expensive thing you can purchase in the 6ix is, look no further than Toronto parking spaces.

A spot located on Yonge Street is currently on sale for a whopping $120,000 and other spots in the downtown core aren't much cheaper.

One space, located at 1 St. Thomas St. is also selling for $99,000. However, if you're looking for something a bit more affordable, you could always get a spot on Front Street, which is going for $78,000.

According to a study done by Statistic Canada, these parking spaces are actually going for way more than the average Ontarian makes in one year.

In fact, the median income after tax in Ontario is around $66,000.
