@canadian_xing Tax is more here, gas costs more here, food costs more as a result of both - and on top of that, haligonians are all so friendly so you’re automatically a jacka** if you don’t tip the minimum 18% that all the machines offer. It’s tough out here these days
Halifax rent is up 10% in a year. Incomes? Just 4.3%. Only 1 in 5 households can afford a 2-bed unit without breaking the 30% rule.
& for many, transportation costs make “affordable” areas unaffordable.
Is Halifax becoming unlivable?
