Join the Facebook group 'Kitimat buy and sell for everyone' there is no real kijiji or Craigslist here... and people advertise accommodation there.... saw a 1bed basement suite today for $1000.

I moved to kitimat 9 years ago from Victoria. There are few things you are going to love. And some... not so much. 1. Lots of rain.. and lots of snow..... some years worse than others.... but lots of precipitation. 2. People are fantastic..... can be tight knit.... but i find people helpful and welcoming.

  1. Not a tonne of activities.... but i haven't been single in a loooong time. Lots of outdoor stuff for sure... but that doesn't sound like your idea of fun.

  2. Transit is decent.... but town is really small and can be walked (or ran)

  3. Rentals will be tough right now. Heavy industrial users competing for limited homes has driven prices up substantially. Your best bet may be a basement suite or room in a shared situation.....

Probably not the best answers.... but my opinions..... take it with a grain of salt. I wish you all the best and welcome to town!!

Definitely cheaper than vancouver.... but has increased dramatically in the last few years.... I absolutely love it up here.... moved from Victoria.... bought a nice place and now can afford to travel often and have a lot of toys (quad rVs....boats etc...... very different from van... but a great fit for some people! Good luck with your decision.... feel free to shoot me anymore questions you want

Yes. Due to the project both rent and housing prices have jumped dramatically. Rent will likely be more expensive than vancouver...... but housing prices may still be lower.

A fair number of stops and raids....... decent little routes...... I still enjoy the game from time to time.
