You are so correct about it not being affordable in Calgary anymore! The transit system is very dangerous off rush hours, so if you want to be imprisoned in your apt, transit only will work...cars don't save time and all the crazy drivers moving here who don't know the road rules are different here from Ontario and slow down many roads unnecessarily...sigh..I miss Calgary before they started paying people to move here, wages have not gone up , minum wage jobs are plentiful but there is no way to afford to live here on minum wage, even eith roommates
Alberta is no longer affordable sadly (for the jobs available). At least with BC, there is rent control with rent that can’t go up more than 3% annually… u could pay $1700/mo in Alberta, but the next year there is no stopping these real estate management companies increasing it to $1900/mo, which happened to many of my close friends.
@@GeneT2323 that's such a great point. The things landlords can get away with in AB is a bit nuts! I have heard Edmonton is still affordable though I'm not sure how long that will last.
Rent control is proven not to work in Bc and Ontario. Sounds good if you don’t move, but people generally move frequently. Landlords can reset the rental to market rates anytime a renter moves out.
Also, as soon as a home is not viable to rent, the landlord will sell taking a home off the market and pushing prices higher.
The only solution is more available stock. The hat is the only thing that will keep rents low.
@@mikestrenja2966 fair point… I’m still enjoying $1600/month (with 3% annual rent increase) in Coquitlam, BC… glad I secured that rent when I did 😁
A 2 bed 2 bath with underground parking, modern apartment, in suite laundry, in south west Edmonton (one of if not the nicest area in Edmonton), close to every single amenity you can think of (you might have to drive downtown for work) cheaper than what you are paying for a 1 bedroom! You can get a solid 2 bed/2 bath as low as $1600 and as high as $1700 in SW Edmonton. I know Edmonton is not as cool as Calgary, but it does have over a million people and folks are moving here from BC and Ontario like crazy. The city is changing rapidly
Yeah I've been looking at buying a condo in Edmonton actually, it's still so affordable!! It's definitely not where I personally want to live but I see the appeal with the low cost of housing there for sure.
Hello, Brittany. Right now, I’m in the early process of getting a work permit to work in Canada. After much deliberation, I chose Calgary. I just think it’s an interesting/beautiful city. I used to not pay too much attention to those, “apocalyptic” videos about Canada, until I learned about the rent control issue taking place in Alberta. That rang the bell. I’m really concerned, as I am afraid, that, if I can get my permanent residence (which I really look forward to) I might eventually need to move to a different city, or even, to another province. We’ll see. All the same. I really want to thank you for this video. It gave me a lot of necessary info, shall I finally make it to beautiful Canada. 👋🍁
Thank you for the comment!! The rent is just crazy here but I'm starting to see signs of it coming down which is good. Edmonton is a good backup option if you want to stay in Alberta but yeah, a lot needs to change here to make it more affordable for the average person. I wish you the best with the move!!
Thanks Brittany, another great video, and I'd love to see a Farmer's Market one!
@@trudimclaren4301 thanks Trudi!! I'll have to include some farmers markets in the next vlog 😊
Thanks for the helpful video!
I am moving from Dubai to Calgary as an immigrant with my wife and my little cat, and I was searching for a rental apartment for the past couple months in Calgary. What bothers me most is that almost no one replies on my emails and applications, and this is a little bit odd for someone advertising his property to be rented but he doesn’t care if someone is interested!
I never found a rental 1 bed in good condition with heat and water under CAD $1700 / no parking spot.
The average monthly rent here in Dubai which is a very expensive city is around CAD $ 1500 in a decent condition + residential gym and swimming pool, and average monthly salary is AED 10000= CAD $ 3700. Tax free.
I really don’t know why I am moving to Calgary!
hopefully the people there have better mind set and behavior than here, otherwise it’s not worth it.
I definitely found the same thing with not getting replies on a lot of properties. I imagine it's because so many people are searching for apartments and they're overwhelmed with applicants?? Either way, they should respond. It is definitely expensive here and the winters can be harsh. I love this city, but the appeal is dwindling with the cost of living.
I wish you the best of luck with your move! If you really don't like it here, you can always move somewhere else too!
@@brittanymorgan09 🙏❤️
Your place now sounds much better than Calgary, and that's before the difference in weather !!

Thanks Brittany for this amazing update on Calgary cost of living
@@usermaguirejaxon thank you for the comment 😊
Great video! I have always wondered if the cost of housing is as bad in Canada as it is in the states. Appears just as bad, if not worse!
As for the winters, we are in Minnesota, sometimes referred to as "little Canada". 🤣
Oh yes!!! Haha I hear Minnesota is very much like Canada. I actually enjoy winter (for about 2 months then I'm over it lol). Yes, the cost of living is making it really difficult for a lot of folks to get by here which is really heartbreaking.
My tip scale has now gone down to 8 (meh service) -10 (good) -15 (great) now, and 0 when I have to go up to place the order, I hope more people start going down, cause it really is outta hand
Absolutely! I have a new rule, if I don't sit, I don't tip. So counter service anyways is not getting tips from me. Table service for sure but yeah, it's nuts! I avoid going out because of it.
Hi, really enjoyed this video and looking forward to more! Just subscribed😊
@@JessLuke thanks so much!! Welcome 🤗
Many Thanks, Brittany, for keeping us updated with the current cost of living in Calgary. You should consider getting a Rogers Red MasterCard, and it gives 2% cash back on everything. If you are a Rogers Customer, Cash back goes up to 3% and USD purchases 3% cash back. Just wanted to keep you informed. The BRIM card is useless now...LOL.. Have a great week.
Thanks for the CC tip!! Yeah I'm so bummed about the BRIM card! I use the PC Financial Card & WestJet World Elite MC but I've been wanting to add another card to my wallet for travel and such. Cheers!
@@brittanymorgan09 I think then you should go with Roger's Red World Elite Mastercard, which has travel insurance too. The only catch is that you need $ 80,000 annual income to qualify fo rit. Good luck
My wife and I spend almost 1200/month on food but this is costco and we have some clothing in there also. we additionally spend about 250/month on relatively regular trips to tim hortons and other things. Calgary is pretty insane, but so is the rest of Canada for the most part. Most of the world for that matter. We as canadians have always had a very low total spending capacity, our high skilled professions make on average 1/2 the amount of our american counter parts. Inflation put it over the edge.
Our total budget doesn't fit in on less then 4500/month and we don't have a high mortgage price either which we got very lucky with holding a 5 cent energy lock in from 2020 and a mortgage renewed in january of 2021. Without these things our expense are over 6k most likely.
I can remember 10 to 15 years ago surviving for a month on about 1/2 that and feeling pampered when rents were 600-700/month for a 2 bedroom shared with a roomie.
@@LanceBryantGrigg yeah it's wild how expensive it is to just survive anywhere these days. Rent is the craziest thing to me in Calgary, it was so much cheaper just a couple of years ago. I'm really lucky I bought when I did too though I'm dreading the mortgage renewal 😭
Wonderful ear rings Brit , looking fantastic and great .
Thank you friend!! ☺️❤️
I wondered if you guys would get a shock moving back. I just spent a month in the states and it's so expensive now, especially Vegas.
@@datractor I kind of knew the rent thing was coming but definitely the grocery prices were a shock! Wow I had always heard Vegas was quite affordable 🤔
@@brittanymorgan09 it used to be, but is crazy now. The most I paid was $18 for a beer, so $30 NZD. I didn't use cash the whole trip so all the eftpos terminals already have 18% as the minimum and up to 30% tip. Highly recommend the wise card if you don't use it already for traveling and moving money around.
It is so nice to hear you talking and see your beautiful face, Brittany. 💖 Thanks for the great vlog, as always😘. I'm glad that you have your budget under control. 👍Of course, you are a financially savvy gal😘👌👏. The cost of living is going up everywhere, and we can't do much to avoid it. Proper planning is the key.👍 Don't you want to move back to Ottawa?😜 Lots of love💖. Enjoy being back in Canada.❤️
Thank you for the kind words again friend!! 😊❤️ Ottawa too is so expensive and higher tax!! So I will probably stay here 😜
😢😘
I really like your contents. I lived in a one bedroom apartment downtown Ottawa 10+ years ago when the rent was $790 hydro included. And I am moving to Christchurch NZ in a couple of weeks. I was wondering if you could make a comparison video about cost of living in both of the countries please?Many thanks.
Hi there! That's a great idea, I'll definitely have to work in a comparison video. Thanks! ☺️
Just check the cost of living per country (15) CANADA 68.4 (16) NZ 68.2 (13) Australia 72.8, however, I don't know what your minimum wage is in CANADA or the country's unemployment rate these can also be contributing factors concerning inflation and supply and demand.
Britney , it's not much better in the united states.. One Bedroom goes for about 1500 to 1700 hundred a month.. Food prices are horrible. A thirty two ounce jar of hellman's mayonnaise , three years ago was $2.99..it is now $7.49.. You can't get a loaf of bread under $2.50..meat prices are so high ..people live on pasta dishes with no meat ..or buy from are dollar tree stores which actually are 1.25 but still cheaper than other grocery stores..gas is ridiculous i drive unreal ...car insurance is through the roof no pun intended lol.. I live in a condo I can't say that my electric bill is high.I only pay for electric.Like 30 during the winter and 45 during the summer cause I have Central air.
My h.o.a is $ 256 a month it includes heat gas and water and taking care of property... I guess I was blessed because I bought my condo.During the pandemic..the interest rate was only 3.% now its 7%...my mortgage is so low even qith condo insurance..taxes for my condo are very low because all the exemptions i am allowed
Nowadays, people can't live. Interest rates. Are crazy foods crazy People live at the dollar store.its heart breaking ... I blame corrupt politicians everywhere... Thanks for the.
Great video
.
Thank you for sharing all this great info!! That is wild that the US is experiencing the same crazy inflation and high cost of living. A very sad and difficult time for many indeed. I hope something happens soon to drop prices so we can all breathe a bit!
@brittanymorgan09 me to Brittany people are homeless all over here and it's sad there priced out here with rent and food I live in the suburbs ..keep up the good videos !!
Downtown Vancouver 1 bedroom is around $2700 - $3200 right now
@@georgea6047 yeah there's a few places we looked at in Calgary in that price range too. Got really lucky to get one under $2K. Depends on the type of building & amenities. There's so many luxury rentals here now over $2,500/mo. I'm sure Vancouver is more, but Calgary seems to be catching up. Yikes!
@@brittanymorgan09 100% When I lived there (2018) $1500 a month would get you a very nice apartment, but also for $1500 a month you could just buy it since they are so cheap in Calgary. Now things are changing for you guys there. However, 1 bed in Vancouver (I live here) starts at 600-650k and it is almost impossible to find a decent 2 bedroom 2 bathroom for under 1mil :(
@@brittanymorgan09 btw looking forward to a future video comparing Canada and NZ/Australia after you guys got back home! Especially things like cost of living, price increases, etc.
@@georgea6047 oh totally!! Buying property is still much cheaper here which I hope lasts. The price of rent all over the country is absolutely absurd considering wages haven't gone up much to keep up. Scary times!
@@georgea6047 awesome!! It's definitely a video I'll be working on 😊 seems like a few people are interested in that comparison for sure.
Hi brittany great video,
i wanted to move to canada a year ago but ended up coming to new zealand instead cos of winter in canada mainly.
now you,ve lived in both countries which one you will think is better if you have citizwnship of either one for quality of life and beauty
thanks
@@FULLYTAKEN hello!! I think if I had citizenship and my family/friends were in NZ, I would pick it over Canada. Canada is really fantastic but the winters can be really tough!
Hi Brittany on the plus size it's all cheaper then nz 😂hope yourself and your partner are doing well but I'm pleased that you enjoyed New Zealands scenery
@@martinsamuels2897 thank you! I'm finding now the only thing that is more expensive in NZ than here is buying a house lol 😂 everything else was the same or cheaper!!
@@brittanymorgan09 well yea that's true I'm nearly 40 and I don't think I will ever beable to own a house and I will be paying it off most likely for the next 25 + years which would make me nearly 70 however what I did think of is buying a Ford transit van and building it into a motor home at a later date but I wish you both all the very best on your future plans and endeavours nice to hear from you take care kind regards Martin 😊🙂✌️
Thanks for the video Brittany. Could you please share your opinion about New Zealand if you were looking for where to move to.
Thanks
There is nice vlogs and interviews wt expats to NZ. Check: It's a Drama series.
Thanks! Personally I would be torn between Wellington and Christchurch. It would depend on the job offers though. Nelson would be a great spot to live again but I think I prefer city life long term.
How many people would live on a bowl of pop-corn for dinner, a snack for lunch and no breakfast?
Have you had any reverse culture shock in canada? Maybe an idea for a video
@@shaungordon9737 a bit for sure!! That's a great video idea, thank you. I have a lot of thoughts on Canada now that I'm back and it's a topic I want to discuss for sure 😊
do you really think stuffs from farmer marker are from farmers?
@@stephenn88 some vendors, no. A lot of them are though and cite the farms they work with. You just have to be careful who you are buying from as with every business.
$1750/mo is far from close to the Downtown Vancouver number - here in Vancouver, a 400ish sqft 1 bedroom (?) is $2400. A normal 600 sqft 1 bedroom costs $2700~$3000.
2 bedrooms are $3600~$3800 easily
@@gems.studio $1,750 is a rare find in Calgary now too. I also looked at a verrrry tiny 1 bedroom for $2700/mo. My point was that it's climbing quickly and Alberta has no limit to how much a landlord can increase rent on tenants outside of a fixed term lease. Thankfully it seems to be cooling a bit now though.
