Entertainment Galore: Experience the thrill of living in the Festival City! From lively music festivals to cultural celebrations, there's always something exciting happening in Edmonton.

⚠️ Cons:

Chilly Climate: Brace yourself for Edmonton's cold winters, where temperatures can plummet, requiring proper winter gear and preparation.
Infrastructure Challenges: Edmonton faces infrastructure issues, including a shortage of hospitals and subpar road conditions, which can impact daily life.

Car Dependency: Due to the city's sprawling layout and limited public transportation options, owning a car is essential for navigating Edmonton's streets, contributing to traffic congestion.

Crime Concerns: While Edmonton is generally safe, it's important to be aware of certain areas with higher crime rates and take necessary precautions.

Surrounded by Farmland: While Edmonton offers urban amenities, it's surrounded by vast stretches of farmland, which may not appeal to those seeking a more densely populated environment.

Whether you're drawn to Edmonton's affordability, cultural richness, or family-friendly atmosphere, this city has something for everyone. Join us as we explore the possibilities of making Edmonton your next home in 2024!

[mashilove]

Please make a video about Edmonton vs Calgary. I would like to know cost of living, job available. House rent & whether...

Edmonton’s best asset is river valley in downtown, however it put three safe injection and fifty social agencies for “safe supply” hard drug and needles…. You can figure out the rest

[stevekaris]

Am a single guy not married no kids, lived and worked in toronto for 9 years don't like it much, wanna risk moving to edmonton to start over, ,any advice

[JohnS-vryx]

[georgioslykakis]

#1 advice if you’re moving to Edmonton is that don’t buy a property with condo fees! You’re welcome!

[beebold]

I bet we are related - storoshenko from Vancouver

[littleripper]

I heard from people living there that people are struggling to find work right now. Every city in Canada is like this but I thought Edmonton might have been spared.

[jimmybutler]

Vancouver is the best city in Canada😊😊😊

[HerrenGamingNews]

I loved living in downtown it's very interesting but there's no reason to visit downtown not to mention that it's extremely dangerous.

I remember in 2021 and 2022 every major road was reduced because of construction, at least downtown did

[karamaleche]

[colehernandez]

Wrong wrong wrong wrong! Obviously dont live in edmonton maybe around it but cleary not in it your right many people are movimg here but in the same token most the locals are leaving cuz they DONT want their childrent to grow uo here

Some relevant and accurate points, and a very good video. Especially about the crime and isolation.
But you presented Edmonton like someone from St. Albert who doesn't know the city as well as someone who actually lives here.
Not your fault just an observation.

Sorry but you missed a lot of good areas like Whyte ave /old Strathcona, the arts scene, museums, the largest live theatre science outside Toronto, the fantastic food scene and shopping, river valley trails, etc

Also transit If you live central is very good if the almost all Indian bus drivers and sketchy passengers don't hurt you.
Also if you're white and want a job with the city of Edmonton good luck. The hiring is woke and racist against white males. Immigrants that make up a small part of the population hold almost monopolies in gov jobs in some departments. Same with females and Gays.
If you're female, brown, black, Gay or Asian you're in and should move here.
If you're conservative there's still lots of opportunities but it won't be with the racist woke city of Edmonton.

I wanna move and need some advice on real estate how do i contact u

[edwardhudson]

$800, 000 Canadian for an apartment in downtown Vancouver, ok right, lets see what we can get in Edmonton 😂😂😂 says this English Edmontonian 😅

[mikej]

Pity anyone who has to move to REDmonton. The embarrassing part of Alberta

[colehernandez]

West end is just as bad if bot worse than down town

[cz]

If you wanna move to Alberta, go for Calgary.... Edmonton is way more woke and unfriendly and boring city, if you coming from Europe or places like Montreal you won't like it here.... loneliness will be your best friend here

[mikej]

lol Multi culture diversity is not an asset. Look at the crooked mayor

[TomahawkHorner]

I'm just here to troll this guy because he definitely doesn't know what he's talking about, which is my family are working on our 3rd and 4th real estate deals with him.
