    If you enjoy reasonable wages and can afford to own a home where you live then Kelowna might not be for you because Kelowna boasts paying you minimum wages and boasts the highest real estate prices in Canada.

      beat me to it. Construction worker rates are lower here also because they call it the 'sunshine tax'

    1. Expensive real estate
    2. Low-end, low-paying jobs
    3. The weather is only good if you limit your comparisons to other places in Canada - a country known for bad weather.
    4. Kelowna is not as famous as people think. Few people outside of B.C. and Alberta have ever heard of it. Even the spell-check is flagging the city's name as an error.

    I can't wait to leave Kelowna. Highest crime rate in Canada, homeless everywhere, filthy air, especially when there are wildfires, housing is super expensive if you can find anything. Winters are awful. Gray skies and the backcountry is off limits because of too much snow. Too much traffic. Kelowna has The main highway running right through the center of the city. No bypass. In the summer thousands of tourists show up making traffic even worse.. if you want to live in Kelowna, remember to bring lots and lots of money You will need it

    It's a great city as mentioned but only if you can afford it. It's just as expensive as the lower mainland with way fewer jobs. We are digital nomads with remote tech jobs so we could afford to live here but it's surely not for people making wages on the lower end.
    But personally I wouldn't live anywhere else. ❤️

      Hey, Nikhil. I am in tech remote job too and planning to move to Kelowna. The main reason is weather and not much hustle bustle of a big city. Could we connect to discuss more about your experience in Kelowna.

    The Snow scared me away, so I'm staying in Victoria! While you're scraping the frost off your windows, I'll be enjoying the Butchart Gardens with my Year Long Pass.

    This video has no reason why you shouldn’t live in Kelowna. The title is deceptive in a fun loving way! I know people that have left Kelowna, for all the drug and homeless people problems. My mom’s garage got broken into and expensive tools stolen. Not to mention their house was broken into, and their valuables stolen. Their house was cased

    Lived in Kelowna for ten years..... vastly over rated. Do your homework first before moving there.

    Okay I thought this was supposed to be a video about WHY NOT to move to this Canadian paradise!!! 😅🙄 Honestly my hometown of Knoxville, TN which is 4x's the size could learn a lot from this city.

    Very overrated here. Unless you’re a millionaire or want to be in debt, don’t move here. Although I’ve lived here 10 years and my favourite part of it is snow, most people here hate the snow but seriously if you can’t handle it don’t come to Canada🙄
