Did we manage to survive on $5,000 a month? Cost of living in Canada
Is $5,000 dollars still enough for a couple to live well in Canada today? In today's video, we decided to be 100% transparent and reveal our real cost of living here in Drummondville (and what changed since we left Saint-Hubert).
Many people wonder whether it's still worth immigrating with inflation and current rent prices. That's why we listed all our fixed and variable expenses so you can understand the financial reality of people who have lived here for 4 years.
In this video you will see the breakdown of:
Housing: How much rent costs today in Quebec.
Groceries: The current cost of the basic food basket for a couple.
Transportation: Car, gas and insurance.
Leisure and Extras
๐ What you'll find:
00:00 - Why is $5k no longer the same?
01:40 - Rent and Household Bills (Hydro/Internet)
03:12 - Grocery store: Did it really go up that much?
04:15 - Car Expenses
05:26 - Phone Plan
05:54 - Digital Subscriptions
06:43 - Total Cost
07:52 - Extra Costs
If you're planning your immigration or already live here and feel the strain on your wallet, this video was made to help you plan better!
