When I lost my job and my husband was retired we decided to leave Ontario and moved to Fredericton NB. and we love it. Found a home on 4 acres for 30% of the cost of the house we sold in Ontario and now have a very affordable retirement.

Great video, I agree totally about Windsor, it’s always been a hidden gem. There’s so much to do in the area and with Detroit across, five minutes away, you’re basically living in a large metropolitan area like Toronto without having to deal with the day-to-day hassle, you have pro sports, first rate cultural entertainment, world-class museums and symphony shopping and many other things to do literally five minutes away, The weather also is very temperate being so far south for Canada, actually the most southern point.Windsor itself is a nice town that offers a great restaurant scene and lovely parks and plenty of shopping also. Nice people too by the way, and some really interesting housing areas, the riverfront is absolutely beautiful. Check it out

I came across ur channel while applying for my citizenship application 1 week ago. I immigrated here 3 years ago under FSW and i live with my husband in windsor, ON. I chose windsor for its affordability, weather, proximity to Detroit. I just want to say that u ladies provide a VERY realistic content in ur videos! My 2 bedroom rental is 1300$ and u can even find cheaper than that. Windsor is a hidden gem. Absolutely no traffic, u can drive around the city in 20 mins stress free. If u miss the hussle and bussle u can cross to Detroit and if u like a more relaxing atmosphere u can drive the opposite way (to the county). Keep on the great content. Sending love ❤️

I moved to kitchener from Vancouver BC in 2017 then in late 2021 I moved from kitchener with my 2 year old to Windsor Ontario. Windsor has been a blessing, I can afford to live here with working just 1 job as a single mom. The people of Windsor are kind, very friendly and welcoming, I'm glad I made the decision to move to Windsor Ontario. Before I moved to Windsor, I had to chose between Calgary, Moncton new Brunswick and Windsor Ontario. The other 2 places are super cold and I was not really done with Ontario so I chose Windsor.

I’m Canadian born and raised. Edmonton should be on this list, it’s affordable for now. Secondly, Trois rivière will be hard to live in if you don’t speak French, even if you don’t have to work out of your home you need to speak the language. Thunder Bay is fine but it is very remote from many places- it is 18 hours from Toronto by driving.

Excellent breakdown! Thank you. I moved from Montreal to Ottawa in 1996, and we find it extremely expensive -- especially since COVID.

Hi there, I am so exited to get connected with you guys. You ladies are so amazing and inspiring. I was attracted to your topic here in YouTube while searching for Content guidelines in my quest of possible getting a sponsored job in Canada. Thank you, for this and many other of your tips. They are very helpful.🥰

Two of my favorite Russian Canadians. Great videos with lots of great advice. I appreciate all the hard work and great content that all Canadians can enjoy.

I love the city trois-rivières I can speak French fluently and the rent is quite cheap. Merci beaucoup

I am from Thunder Bay & so glad I "finally" left there 10 years ago. It use to be a beautiful city, with interesting activities & fun places to go, but all has gone 20+ years ago. High drug & alcohol use & has been deemed the highest crime/murder rate per capita.

[roshanpoudel]

You can consider Edmonton in the list. Rent is around 800-1100 in downtown and public transportation is easily accessible and affordable.

American tourist never made Windsor feel dirty. It’s the high level of homelessness. The American tourist were part of what helped maintain what used to be a higher level of services to the residents.

I am still undecided so this channel helps. I retire in 4 years and don't want to stay in Ottawa. I've considered Windsor, Chatham, Welland and London. I am leaning towards a rural London town like Strathroy. Windsor has 1.81 percent property tax which is high. I am also concerned about flooding.

new brunswick has three cities an hour apart from each other, friendly people, and cheaper to live and close to Halifax

[alysbackincanada]

Medicine Hat, Alberta! Small city but affordable and beautiful. Sometimes it's better to go small than live in big city

[Vil_tron]

Halifax is crazy expensive, rent is usually 2000+ dollars per month.

[MsRenaissance]

Thank you for this video ladies. I am hoping to move to Windsor this year to do my MBA, so I really appreciate the information you provided about the city. It reinforced that that city was a good choice for me.

[Mario-wgfv]

As a French and English speaker, I will choose Quebec City or Montreal

[jkinnear]

I think Saint John NB would be another great place to consider when looking for a city with a more affordable cost of living.
