Cost of Living in Canada
The cost of living in Canada is considerably cheaper than most major international destinations. Canadian cities have slipped down the Mercer cost of living index. Its highest ranking city Toronto is down 31 places to 85th.
Despite its comparative low cost, the quality of life is among the top in the world. Uncommon expenses in Canada will be car insurance, petrol (although cheaper per litre than most cites is used in much more abundance), heating costs (especially during winter) and taxes - which can accumulate to about 44 percent of salary.
Living in a city is much more expensive than rural communities. Toronto and Vancouver are the most expensive and substantially more costly than Ottawa. This is especially true for house prices, although these are usually cheaper than in most international cities. On average Canada will be only 30 – 50 percent as expensive as life in the UK.
