    Vancouver is notoriously one of the, if not the - most expensive place/s to live in Canada. The cost of living there was insane even before the housing crisis. It can cost something like $3000 a month for something as small as a 350 Sq foot apartment, and the average monthly living cost for an individual there (not a family) is over $5000. Near vancouver, it’s not that great either.

    The city also has a pretty rough homelessness and opioid problem, so take that for what you will.

    If you find a job that pays like $120,000, then go for it, otherwise it’s not so good.

    If you want cheaper property/rental prices in Canada, I would probably recommend looking at listings in provinces such as Saskatchewan or Manitoba.
