My husband got a job offer in Edmonton, Canada - we currently live in Europe. Any information on Edmonon? |
Travel Info Any information on Edmonton will be very much appreciated. Or any useful link. Neither of us have been to Canada. Information about the weather, unemployment rate, cost of living, quality of live, criminality rate, how is life there, anything that can be different and one should know! Thank you! Travel Tips There is no shortage of work in Edmonton, but at the same time a good portion of the population is very well educated so the higher paying jobs are competitive. The cost of living, rent, groceries, hydro etc. is quite reasonable compared to other areas of Canada. Edmonton has excellent public schools especially for children with special needs or learning disabilities. The summers are hot and the winters cold. The majority of the crimes seem to be centred in the south end of the city and although the town is taking measures to combat the problem, there is gang activity and a lot of drug related crime. ( as there is in any city ) Sherwood Park or the other new subdivisions on the outskirts of Edmonton or the north part of Edmonton is, I think the best area's to live in. The following website lists realestate agents in Edmonton ( a lot of them handle rentals as well.) and also has all kinds of information on Edmonton such as schools, lifestyle, employment, shopping, attractions, etc. Hope it helps.. http://www.edmontonrealestate.com/aboute... Others it looks alot like America, but politically and socially it is very similar to Europe. Search the internet. go to google and search the city. You will find plenty. Here you go. Hope it's helpful. I live 20 minutes south of Edmonton. It's a nice place to live. All the best. http://www.edmonton.ca/portal/server.pt... I have not been to Edmonton but I have friends that have lived there. The economy in Alberta is very good right now because of the oil boom. Last I heard house prices are reasonable (compared to Toronto or Vancouver). The winters are cold! (Compared to some of the other places in the country.) http://www.edmonton.ca/socialplan/docume... |
