TOP 10 - Best Places To Live in CANADA

3
According to MoneySense, Canada’s Best Places to Live 2012 compiles, weighs and ranks 190 cities and towns in Canada by 22 separate categories - walk/bike to work, air quality, weather, population growth, unemployment, affordable housing, crime rate etc.

While they claim that they can’t gauge many of the elements that people enjoy in their cities, the nearness of family, the friendliness of neighbours or even great sunsets, they have measured what can be measured and compared what can be compared from towns and cities across our provinces and territories.




Below are the TOP 10 BEST Places To Live in CANADA starting from #10:

  1. My husband and I are going to rent in Fort McMurray, do you have anything to say about there? We live in the U.S. right now but will be moving for his job and that's where we found a place. I'm a little nervous, but I'm sure it will be okay.

  2. Hi Stacey!
    Sounds exciting! Unfortunately, we don't know much on the 'city' other than it is fairly far out there and has a borderline humid continental climate, with long, very cold winters and warm short summers. It's population is around 60+ thousand and prices for homes are pretty high there for such a remote area.

    How long are you planning on staying there for? There are so many other nice places in Canada, but we know you have to go where the job takes you. Good luck!
