Husband would like to move to Edmonton area to get away from Ontario
Need some advice,
I’m a 25-year-old woman. I have a three year-old child. My partner job is closing and he’s been with the company for 10 years. We’ve been saving to buy a house for the last eight years and still can’t seem to be able to in Ontario , Peterborough area he really would like to move out to Edmonton as he is family out there that can help him get a job that he can easily make more money than he has made here, but I am very hesitant as I have young siblings and other younger family members that I am close to, and I do not want to lose contact with, and the idea of being there alone out there scares me and it makes me really nervous to take my three year-old away from her grandparents and aunts and uncles 😔 so my questions has anyone moved from the Peterborough or Ontario area to Edmonton with young children and waswas it worth it? My husband thinks that this is the best option that we’ll be able to actually own a house and live more comfortably and save/give more for her education.

Hey Girl! I moved from Montreal to Edmonton when my son was just 8 months old, it’s not exactly the same since your daughter is much older and has a strong bond with your family members. I’m not gonna lie it’s hard, i hate to be far away from my family, it’s hard to miss my nieces and nephews grow up, we do visit 2-3x a year. I do love it here in Edmonton compared to living in Quebec. It’s much easier to save especially with the huge difference in taxes and house prices.
Good luck girl!
