    In this full Alberta vlog tour, I take you through 3 WHOLE SEASONS so that you can get a real life look at what living in Alberta and living in Canada is actually like!
    Like anywhere though, no one place or city is perfect. So living in Alberta and living in Canada certainly has its pros and cons.
    Being born and raised in Alberta, I can definitely share some personal insight of what it’s like actually living here in Alberta, and living in Canada.
    So if you’re wondering what it’s like living in Alberta, Canada or what it’s like living in Canada, then this video is for you!
    Enjoy the 3 season tour of living Alberta and let me know what you think about living in Alberta, and living in Canada.
    Could you see yourself living in Alberta?
    There are so many great places to live in Alberta! Edmonton and Calgary are our two biggest cities with Edmonton being the capital; but both the Edmonton real estate market and the Calgary real estate market offer a ton of housing options. And both Edmonton and Calgary have international airports too!

    As someone from Alberta I will say that the cold can be that bad that it undercuts the advantage of a winter. Those days, there just isn't anything to do outside. But, it's not months of it. The amount of days like that are measured in days and weeks. Most of the winter is pleasant. It's pretty easy to adapt
    Very accurate video.

    Hey, nice video! My family is planning to move to Edmonton in around May-June. Currently we live in Quebec and Alberta seems like our best choice. Quebec is very french and renting apartments is quite expensive as well. We looked at a few townhouses in Edmonton, ( to be specific 3 bedrooms- 2 bathrooms) and the price is so affordable!! Can't wait to move :)

      Glad to hear you enjoyed it! If you’re already in Winnipeg then you know all about the cold. If it’s cold anyways, you might as well be in Edmonton, or Calgary because they are better places to live vs. Winnipeg in my opinion. 🙂

    Totally get that feeling when the picture or video doesn't cut it. Came to Finland in 2021, and her lakes are just ❤️❤️❤️❤️ love your videos 🙏
    I wanted to move to the Yukon, but I couldn't find any place where dogs are allowed 🤦 so going to my favorite province, Alberta. Always loved Edmonton, but Red Deer looks great too (based on the videos that Kyle makes: Living in Alberta). You two are my favorite! Awesome content. I am leaning toward St. Albert (remote work, so no commute 😅), so looking forward to contacting you as soon as I have finalized WHERE 😀 And the colder, the better 🤣

    • @AllThingsRealEstate
      @AllThingsRealEstate  Рік тому

      St. Albert is a pretty special place. 🙂 The draw for me to Red Deer is how close it is to Sylvan Lake. But my family and I day trip to Sylvan Lake all the time and the drive isn’t that bad.

    High crime rate also means that police is doing their job well and that not necessarily a bad thing! I like that you are happy I dont see so many content creators so sound in mind and spirit as much I see coming from Alberta. Seems to me that people are friendly and overall enjoy security. Clean, good roads, friendly people and give off a vibe that feels too good to be true and most likely it is true and thats perfectly great and awesome! Thank you for the video!

    Interesting perspective MIKE and well presented. Calgary appears a good choice when I retire. One property was presented - a top floor condo in an older development with 1100 sq. ft. and a large workshop in the basement. I like both aspects and hear there are other such developments in the city. That place wasn't right for me and I am seeking listings such as in the future.

    • @AllThingsRealEstate
      @AllThingsRealEstate  Рік тому

      Appreciate hearing that! Calgary is awesome, and as an Edmontonian I have no problem admitting that. It’s a really nice city, and I’m jealous of how close it is to the mountains. If you need any help, feel free to shoot me an email!

He just arrived in Edmonton almost 2 weeks ago. It's been 5days he works in Sherwood park.. No enough money.. no families or relatives around 😢 .. he's been walking 50-60 minutes to work if there is no bus during weekends. After watching this about the weather, I'm so worried for winter. He doesn't have enough winter jacket. 😢

  • @NordeggSonya
    @NordeggSonya Рік тому +2

    I lived in Jasper for 7 yrs. I was a cat operator (groomer for Marmot and 5 yrs in Lake Louise) Nice place to visit but don't live there. $$$ and very cliquey. I lived in Leduc for many years and it was a good time. I worked in oil (artificial lift) and made good money. Now I live in Rocky Mountain House and I'm getting tired of everything. The weather is freaking awful and if you don't have a greenhouse or hoop house you may not grow anything in your garden. Rocky gets snow in the summer and we are the capital of hail in Canada. Freaking hail that ruins homes, cars and crops!!!!! Real estate is $$ mega $. l litre of coffee cream 7.29, pound of butter 5.49, car insurance holy smoke. I am over 60 no accidents ever. Old truck and Ford Focus (together)for one year used to be 445 a year. Now my truck is 900 a year and my car is 465 a year. Gas 113.9 ltr (filled up today) diesel 179.9. Mechanics are at the very least 125 an hr. Utilities are fucking incredible. In the winter my electric bill (lights and heat) is around $700.00 a month and more than half of it is additional charges. More than half of it is extra charges. I typed that twice because I can only afford to live in the front third of my mobile. Mobile lots here in Rocky go from 375 ( I am at 410.00 includes water sewage and garbage dumpster) to 600.00 a month. Land taxes for me were over 350 but we remeasured my mobile and the tax was adjusted lower. Dog/cat tags are $30 yr for a sterilized animal. And the most stupid thing. I was at Sobeys and asked about our beef ie what we buy in our stores and where we get it from. Turns out the ground beef pork chicken turkey comes from a plant in Kansas. We sit in the middle of beef pork chicken and turkey land and our stuff comes from the States. Holy shit. You can purchase marked packages of 4H beef but you don't know what part of Alberta it came from. The young fella couldn't tell me where the cut beef etc., comes from. If you tell us to buy local you better buy local too and hire local. I don't know how it is in the rest of Canada but here we have a lot of new Canadians. We don't get hired to work and they import people from other countries. I know Rocky has many many many foreign people owning major businesses here and they want to bring their people over from where ever they came from. I get it but seriously we have the highest unemployment rate in all of Canada. Because we have so many people who work in well paying jobs all the prices are geared to them. Dental work is unbelievably expensive and the minimum wage worker has no chance. The thing that burns me for that is the people who have high paying jobs have benefits/insurance so they don't pay for it at all. Dentures, too. My eye glasses were around 380.00 and the eye exam I can't remember but not that much. As a province we are staunchly conservative. Out here in the country we get up and go to work and its yup do your thing just don't bother me. Say what you mean and walk the talk. We help each other when we can and we rally around when things go sideways ie Slave Lake fire (twice!) and the Ft Mac fire, the '87 tornado, Pine Lake tornado and other weather phenomena. I really appreciated the guy who mowed his lawn while there was a tornado approaching. Can't find the picture. His wife took the picture from their deck I think. We have fly fishing that is International Blue Ribbon water (The Bow River) and countless countless other streams and rivers that don't have a footprint along their banks. The hunting is world class too!!! I can tell you that moose and elk taste wonderful. I don't like deer, gamey. The scenery!!! Oh my!! It is a beautiful province and I guess I will continue living here because I don't want to live in Lotus Land (BC Bring Cash). It is a great province and you could do worse than to move here but you have to see both sides of the coin and don't think all the roads are paved in gold. Right now its ice ice ice. If you come here for work have all your ducks in a row because all the courses are expensive and you need a lot of them to work in the patch. Have a backup plan for if it doesn't work. Drop in for a visit as Rocky Mountain House is a nice place on your way through. In Nordegg we have fantastic camping and fishing and Abraham Lake is stunning!!!!! And the weather??? Wait 15 min and it will change, just dress for it. God Bless you and I hope I helped someone with this diatribe.
