You should be making this decision based on employment and network prospects. Apartment costs are irrelevant and not significantly different.

It's relevant. That's why i want to know the cost of apartment to measure if your salary will be enough for the cost of apartment.

I find those quetions hard to answer because only you know what's important to you. The term "simple apartment" isn't very helpful.

Maybe you should look up craigslist Vancouver (possibly Richmond if you want to be close to work) and craigslist Montreal?

I would also have a look at other costs, from cell phone to groceries to hydro etcpp...

Your wage won't buy you weather as well, so if you move to Van there are only two seasons, sun/rain and construction. If you're fine with that, welcome to Van! Don't know nothing about Montreals weather....sorry.

Good luck!

THank you for the information. Yup i know that, the costs of groceries, hydro and cellphone. I can manage that. i can survive for $200 in two weeks just for the grocery. I cooked and bring it at work to save money and most of all, healthy home cooked foods.
