When I lost my job and my husband was retired we decided to leave Ontario and moved to Fredericton NB. and we love it. Found a home on 4 acres for 30% of the cost of the house we sold in Ontario and now have a very affordable retirement.

We're fed up with the growth and noise of Calgary and are looking for a quieter life and Fredericton is really speaking to us to buy our first home. We are going to come visit next spring to suss it out. If you've got any advice in the meantime about daily living, prices, healthcare etc, that would be much appreciated!

Great video, I agree totally about Windsor, it’s always been a hidden gem. There’s so much to do in the area and with Detroit across, five minutes away, you’re basically living in a large metropolitan area like Toronto without having to deal with the day-to-day hassle , you have pro sports, first rate cultural entertainment, world-class museums and symphony shopping and many other things to do literally five minutes away, The weather also is very temperate being so far south for Canada, actually the most southern point.Windsor itself is a nice town that offers a great restaurant scene and lovely parks and plenty of shopping also. Nice people too by the way, and some really interesting housing areas, the riverfront is absolutely beautiful. Check it out

@BoondockSaintRyan Жыл бұрын

I've lived in Windsor my whole life. I've given up on it. I'm looking to transfer out as soon as I can. I used to love it, but it's full of selfish, greedy, miserable people. Worth drivers, too many investors ruining the housing market. A mayor and council who don't care. It's really too bad. Potential.....yes. A healthy, vibrant future...... absolutely not.

Please do your homework. Rent has skyrocketed in Windsor since 2017. The figures in this video are very low. Units in my building (which I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy) are $1800 for a 1BR, and $2200 for a 2BR. 2BR houses are renting for $2400-2800/month. Unemployment is very high and wages are low. If you're happy working in fast food or retail, there are lots of jobs, but those won't cover rent. House prices have nearly tripled since 2017.

I started a 17$/hr customer service job and i was able to afford rent + living expenses which can not be achievable in places like Toronto with that kind of pay.

I’m Canadian born and raised. Edmonton should be on this list, it’s affordable for now. Secondly, Trois rivière will be hard to live in if you don’t speak French, even if you don’t have to work out of your home you need to speak the language. Thunder Bay is fine but it is very remote from many places- it is 18 hours from Toronto by driving.

I moved to kitchener from Vancouver BC in 2017 then in late 2021 I moved from kitchener with my 2 year old to Windsor Ontario. Windsor has been a blessing, I can afford to live here with working just 1 job as a single mom. The people of Windsor are kind, very friendly and welcoming, I'm glad I made the decision to move to Windsor Ontario. Before I moved to Windsor, I had to chose between Calgary, Moncton new Brunswick and Windsor Ontario. The other 2 places are super cold and I was not really done with Ontario so I chose Windsor.

Search homes in London for sale and you’ll see eye-watering prices for little homes. Pre-sales for townhomes are touching a million mark. Same story in Ottawa, GTA, Kitchener-Waterloo, Kingston, and everywhere. Options are Timmins and North Bay but they are expensive too for their size and location. Homes in North Bay at $500k plus. It’s crazy. Calgary and Edmonton became sellers market for the time during that pandemic boom. Record number of people moving to Calgary and Ontario losing net number of people each year. Even worse in Vancouver and anywhere in BC. East hastings area in Vancouver is just third world now, becoming LA and San Francisco…working people living on the streets, I have no hopes anymore, I plan to move to US for higher salary and relatively affordable homes…Ontario has gone to shit…There was a little town in the news few months back which was seeing homes getting sold at a million dollars, away from any big city…Atlantic Canada is even worse…Halifax is becoming too unaffordable…home ownership among my generation is on a free fall…it’s demotivating :(

By seeing the comments you get for your videos I have subscribed to your channel, more than having a channel for yourselves you are contributing in a great way for others by giving valuable information which leads to happiness, and I admire it. I am from India, I am planning to come to Canada, I run a Digital Marketing Agency, I know only English, and I want to start my services in Canada, Do the places you have spoken in this video have opportunities for me? If not can you tell me some good places where I can start, Thank You and Keep Going!!

Trois-Rivières is your best bang for you buck. One factor that wasn't mentioned is that it has a very low crime rate as opposed to Thunder Bay, Regina, and Saskatoon. However, I definitely recommend you learn French if you live anywhere in Québec.

Having moved to Vancouver 1.5 years I can confirm that it doesn't belong on the affordable list. Also, I moved there from Windsor which is on your list. My 1 bedroom downtown was a LOT cheaper than your average of $1355. I was only paying $850 right on the main downtown street of Ouellette. And it was nice too. Clean, quiet, spacious. Now that same apartment is $1200. A 40% increase in just 18 months.

@BoondockSaintRyan Жыл бұрын

That figure for downtown Windsor is misleading. I'm paying $900/month for a 1BR in one of the worst neighborhoods. If I moved out, and back in, it would be double. 2BR units start at about $1900/month, unless you're splitting an illegal boarding house, which are very popular here now. Windsor has gotten terrible in the last 6-8 years.

It all depends on your profession and the state of the market. In any case, we always recommend to visit the city before deciding to settle down in it.

I watched this video to see what else was out there. I've lived in Windsor for 41 years. I've stayed here because of my family and what USED TO BE a low cost of living. However, since around 2015, people from everywhere else have moved here. Windsor, if studies were available, has to have one of the highest rates of investment properties. Because of this, rents are skyrocketing. We've historically had the highest unemployment rate, lowest median income and cheapest real estate. Not anymore!! Rents have more than doubled since 2017. One of the main reasons for this, is because people keep comparing that to Toronto. However, unemployment hasn't dropped and salaries haven't risen. Our crime rate and homelessness rate are also skyrocketing. If it wasn't for family and the proximity to Detroit, I'd be long gone. It's cheaper to live in cities like Guelph, Kitchener-Waterloo and London. I wouldn't wish living here on anyone. Also, your figures for rent are a bit off. 1-2BR units are going for $1800-2200/month. A 3BR apt or house is about $2400-2800/month.

Province of Quebec has the lowest education costs and affordable living. For job perspectives I suppose you'll move wherever you find your first job and gain Canadian experience. And then after a year or so you can look for new job elsewhere if you want.

@oldveeh Жыл бұрын

@@MakeThatChange actually, I do not care if Winnipeg made the list or not. I'm actually wondering why Regina or Saskatoon are a better option. If you look at the numbers Winnipeg is a bigger city, so I assume more job possibilities. And the real estate citation is affordable, I think it's about the same as the Saskatchewan. And Manitoba I thing has a better health system. This is my understanding from internet and KZfaq. But I can be wrong or missed something.

If moving to BC stay away from the coast! It is the most expensive area in Canada with severe homelessness, drug abuse, healthcare and housing issues. It is impossible to understand the severity of these issues coming from eastern Canada.The Interior of BC is much nicer, although it's much smaller.

Moved to Saskatoon from Toronto and it's Awesome city with lots of high paying jobs hence living is very much affordable, rents are just 900-1000$ in some of the areas for 2 bedrooms & you can buy own decent house for 200k to 300k, if you figure out to cover up your body in winters you wouldn't mind the winter here and that extreme winter goes only for a week or two. Lots of outdoor & indoor fun activities in winters within city. Biggest opportunity is coming to invest as world's top 2 Potash manufacturers are in Saskatoon and world is going on laid off employees but in Saskatoon companies are hiring a lot. Even if government changes and Pipeline projects starts again it will be boom like GTA
