moving from Calgary to Vancouver...?

Question

Me and my fiance are planning to move to Vancouver. Are there lots of IT jobs in Vancouver? My fiance has a diploma from IT and hes working towards his degree. I work at a dental office as an assistant There are lots of job opportunities here but...something about Calgary..I hate..It's just so...boring..and..COLD. People say Vancouver is expensive...but that's what they said about Toronto and Calgary too. And to me it's all the same.

So..is it a good idea to move to Vancouver. I heard it rains a lot in Vancouver. But honestly I don't care.I would rather have rain then -30 in the winter and Calgary crappy weather.

any advice would be great
thanks in advance!

Answer 1

You're right. People say everywhere is expensive, so might as well live where you want to.



Vancouver's a very big city, so there's going to be more job opportunities both in IT and in dental offices.



There's tons of stuff to do in Vancouver.



If you both want to go, I'd say go.



It could take some time to get settled, but that's O.K. That's just how it goes sometimes. Enjoy it. Even if it took you two years to find a place you're comfortable in and jobs for the both of you, once you've got that done, you'll be doing fine and in a city you like.
