@scottalanmiller : It's also in a town of 3300 people and 3 hours away from a major city so I'd assume cost-of-living will be relatively low.
I'd assume the opposite. Cost of every day things will probably be more. At least that's how it tended to work in the US when I was driving truck. Having to ship everything that far is going to cost.
Gas is $116.9/L in Virden.
Gas is $98.9/L in the Edmonton region where I work.Gas is generally cheaper in Alberta since we produce the stuff so less distance to the pump.
I pulled a flyer from Virden's Co-Op and from St. Albert's SuperStore and the prices are not that far off. About $1/Lb for various meats. Some things are actually less expensive in Virden versus here which may speak more to higher demand in the city.
Homes look to be less and I suspect the municipal taxes would be lower too.
Not much of a commute would be my suspicion, so costs travel wise would be low.
Housing costs seem to be the most dramatic difference that I've seen. My house on either coast in anything but the shittiest of neighborhoods would easily run $750-3 mil... but here, it's only $200K. You see tiny little 800 sqft places going for 1.3 million on TV in those fixer upper shows... it's nutz!

Why are you limited to only Uber with no consideration for public transit such as bus and train?
Very little of the US has train. A lot more has bus, but even that is pretty hard.
OH, he said city so I just assumed it would be like San Diego or Sweden.

The nearest grocery is 4 miles away, and the path is extremely hilly.
Ya, that's less than ideal lol
