  That really is a YMMV outcome, then. Ie, Nanaimo was once a small town in central Vancouver island, with low rents and cheap housing. It's now one of the fastest growing cities in Canada[0] and has some of the highest rents and fastest growing rents in BC[1]. Really, here in Canada the situation is changing _fast_. What may have seemed a reasonable market a year ago could have collapsed into unaffordability by now. Also, as a resident of Nanaimo: be prepared not to have access to Health Care. As a new resident you won't get a family doctor, and the _single_ walk-in clinic stops taking patients early in the morning. The ER is your only option, and often it only has one attending doctor. This is similar throughout BC outside of Victoria and Metro Vancouver. In no small part because of people like yourself, who are avoiding immigrating to the big cities; but also because of people fleeing the cities. 0: https://nanaimonewsnow.com/2022/02/09/nanaimo-population-jumps-twice-national-rate-top-five-fastest-growing-metro-area-in-canada/ https://nanaimonewsnow.com/2022/02/09/nanaimo-population-jum... 1: https://nanaimonewsnow.com/2022/12/14/rent-prices-in-nanaimo-across-canada-push-higher-into-record-territory/ https://nanaimonewsnow.com/2022/12/14/rent-prices-in-nanaimo...
