So I'm thinking about making a switch to another country, Canada has pop'd up on this list. Can someone chime in on the difference to living in the US? Are Cars relatively the same price?
Do you have a job and citizenship lined up?
Are Cars relatively the same price?
Cars are much more expensive in Canada.
A base model GTI starts at 29, about 5 thousand more than in the U.S
I work in the USA and live in Canada. I am Canadian, born in Montreal, grew up in southwestern Ontario, lived in Toronto (downtown) for a few years before moving to Windsor, which is right across the river from Detroit. I have been working in the states for almost 7 years. I guess I would say Canada is a great country, I love it, but it is very big and things vary greatly, from climate, cost of living, language, general culture, etc. We pay more for just about everything than Americans, sometimes it is justified, sometimes not, but I would say that we probably pay less for essentials, housing, food etc, than most first world countries. If you have a family and are just starting out Canada has a lot to offer, good schools, good healthcare, good opportunities for those looking to work. Again, I guess what I would do is find out if your company as openings in Canada, and find out where...then look into that city and province. Toronto for example is Canada's most diverse city but it is big and expensive, and not for everyone.
