What is a typical expat home or apartment like in Canada?
We asked expats what a typical home or apartment in Canada is like. They answered...
"I live in a manufactured home retirement park now in a very beautiful part of this city. It is typical for some retired expats from many different countries as we live a very mobile life style. By the way, the average age for this city is 32 years of age.It as grown from less than 200,000 to more than 900,000 since I came here," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Calgary, Canada.
"It was a small modular home on the banks of Okanagan Lake. It's not a typical home for the area although there are quite a few areas in Kelowna with this type of low cost housing," commented one expat who made the move to Kelowna, Canada.
