Whats the living costs in Calgary, and marketplace for Pharmacists and Network Administrator?

Question

Hi. We´re going to emigrate to Canada, and we want to live in Calgary. My wife (37 years old)i s a pharmacist and I (37) am specialized in computers networks, with a degree. How is the market for these jobs in Calgary? And, for a couple, whats the living costs in canadian dollars? (except rental). thanks.

Answer 1

Well the average house price (if you can find a house) is at least 200k.  Mobile homes are currently selling for minimum 100K.  Check mls.ca to look at current listings.  Rent prices are average 800/month plus utilities for a 2 bedroom place....  I think your wife would find a job pretty quick, not sure on your job though....

As for other living costs, it depends on your basis of comparision.....
