Living in Toronto vs Vancouver, Canada! 2022 | Pros & cons by someone who has lived in both cities
Awesome video! I'm moving to Canada in May so thanks for the lowdown
Probably the most explanatory video I've ever watched, it will help me to decide
Thanks so much 🥹🩷
Excellent video, thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️ you answered all the questions I had in mind 😊☺️
You are so welcome 😊❤️
happy three years!! love watching your city comparison videos so much:)))
You are so sweet, thanks!!!! 😘
Thanks for the perspective😊
You are welcome!
Heyy!! Sash I really really really appreciate your vlogs so so so much you inspired me so so so much and I will support you till end🌸😭😭💫💗
Very cool job, Sasha!❤️❤️🌸🌸
thank you!!!!
You’re welcome, Sasha!
Sasha awesome video hope your doing well 💙💙
Thank you! You too!
First off, congratulations to you and Elliott on three years together! Having grown up an hour from Toronto, but having visited my brother several times when he lived in Vancouver back in the 90's, I'd say that I completely agree with Elliott's assessment of the two cities. Toronto being a megalopolis has a highly competitive, rat race feel to it, whereas Vancouver has that infamous west coast, laid back vibe. Also, as you said Sasha, a person's preference for what environment they prefer will depend largely on the stage of life they're in and what their priorities are at that stage. Anyways, interesting and informative comparison.
Thank you!!! ☺️ yep! stage of life affects so much of where we choose to live! thanks for watching as always!
The Golden Horseshoe (Greater Toronto) has 9.8 million people. To put that in perspective the entire Australian states of NSW 8.2 million, and Victoria 6.7 million have less people. Toronto has much more going on than Vancouver, in terms of universities, sports, theatre, museums, nightlife, shopping, and live music events. Toronto is the money center of Canada, so it has much higher incomes, and job opportunities than Vancouver. On the other hand, Vancouver has one of the greatest natural settings of any city in the world, and more outdoor activities. If you're a big city type person then its Toronto for you, if you like outdoor activities more, than its Vancouver. I totally agreed with your assessment of both cities, very accurate.
Thanks so much! I’ll let him know ☺️🇨🇦
Greater toronto is not the golden horseshoe. Golden Horshoe is greater toronto to hamilton to niagara falls
@@gracedagostino5231 Man, i frigging hate people like you always acting like youtube isome kind of spelling bee. Just let me spell how ever i want. Jeez!
That was interesting, and like you say it all boils down to what kind of lifestyle a person prefers! From seeing a number of these Vancouver vs Toronto things, it seems more a Vancouver thing to compare that city to Toronto than the other way round. By the way, it never hit -36c in Toronto. The coldest in Toronto's recorded history was back in the 1880's when it hit -32c. You are likely thinking of that Canadian thing "Feels like" weather, which is usually more dramatic and preferred by people. 2:51 GO train and GO bus are the long distance public transport to places as far away as Waterloo. Toronto has the largest streetcar network in North America, which is the only 24-7 transit system in Canada. Plus the mostly underground heavy rail subway system. Also of course buses (lots of electric buses in Toronto), and the extensive suburban GO system. 7:39 You are referring to West Coast sports games (which you probably followed); they are shown at 10pm in Toronto. Not games from Toronto, NYC, Philly, Miami, etc.. those start more like 7pm out east, but 4pm in Vancouver. If you are a sports fan, in both cities you can follow MLS, CFL and NHL, but in Toronto there is also MLB and NBA. If you watch European soccer, those games are 8 hours ahead in Vancouver, but only 5 hours ahead in Toronto. Arts/Music (museums, galleries, Opera, Symphony) as well as contemporary scenes (especially hip hop) are a lot more in Toronto if you are into culture. Food scene great in both cities but much more depth in Toronto because it is a bigger city, with more of a varied international population. Night life, well.. I think that is pretty well documented. I've lived in both but found Vancouver too slow paced for me and I had a hard time meeting people; I prefer night life to early morning, personally. The weather varies in each year to year. This year it snowed in Toronto and Vancouver around the same number of times. Milder than normal for Toronto and colder than normal for Vancouver. Toronto can have a lot colder winters, though and they seem long. Winter is milder in Vancouver, but there is the cloud and the rain. and Spring is waay more beautiful in Vancouver, but Summer and Autumn are nicer in Toronto. If you lived all your life in BC it will seem really hot in Toronto in the summer, but if you live longer than a year or so you get used to it and you like the heat. It is GREAT for going to the beaches. One thing I always felt in Vancouver was that even in the summer it got chilly in the evenings and at night. In Toronto unless it rains you don't need a hoodie from Spring to late fall. In fact last night was the third or fourth snowfall this year in Vancouver which is more like what I remember as a kid in Vancouver! A bit of trivia.. back in the 60's it got so cold in Vancouver one winter that it killed all of the Windmill Palms (hardiest in the world), but not in Portland. That is why the palms are so much bigger in Portland. A lot of central Vancouver is built on a fairly flat plane, but in general Toronto is "flatter" in that there are no mountains nearby, and the slope upward to the north is very gentle. Really nice if you are a cyclist! ☺
this was such a great video with so much information! as some one who has always wanted to visit canada it’s hard to determine which places to visit specifically because of how huge it is! hoping to visit someday soon :) loved this video idea 💗💫🌻
Omg thank you so much means a lot 🥺🥺❤️❤️❤️ i hope you can tooo!!
Lived for 6 years in Toronto and last year I moved to Richmond. Completely agree with the comparisons.
Thank you for watching 😊😊
Elliot's happiness is where the lovely Sasha is. The rest is Academic 😉💚
And really, can you blame him? He is a pretty lucky guy!
Lived both in Vancouver and Toronto, Toronto is much safer.
Vancouver downtown east side is probably the worst part I've ever seen in North America.
It’s really rough 😞😞 LA has worse but Vancouver is a close second
I'm pharmacist living in italy I hate here cause wages are so low and life ain't cheap
I wanna move and get my license and get registered somewhere else somewhere with better salary and cheaper housing and better quietly of life
Which one is really better option Australia(Melbourne )or Canada (Toronto)?
Im a photographer and I understand that all depend to the industry that I work in
So which is better for my career to start
I’m not sure!! Toronto is more fast paced city and Vancouver you could do more nature photography? Both artsy in different ways. More $$$ and opportunities in Toronto i’d say but depends on what lifestyle you are after
Toronto is just much better in many ways, but cost of living just surpass Vancouver recently which is bad things.
You'd be surprised how expensive Vancouver is for seemingly everything. Gas is something like $1.88 in Vancouver vs $1.46/ litre in Toronto. In my experience food/drinks are more expensive in Vancouver, especially restaurants/bars. Both cities are expensive to buy or to rent, of course.
Yeah, I hate how Vancouver clogs up their sidewalks with those trees! And don't get me started on those intimidating mountains---they should tear them down a little because they scare me! Also, they should remove some of that greenery because a bear or cougar could just jump out and attack somebody! Nature is just sooo boooring---gimme some concrete!
Meanwhile with Toronto, I just love that urinal stench at the corner of King and Younge---gives me nostalgia! Also love how the subway seating is made out of upholstery, so that all sorts of treasures can be soaked up. Other perks include tired 1960s/70s architecture, businesses with gaudy marquees and lights that give me Vegas vibes, horn music, blue salt covering the sidewalks even when it's above five degrees, supermarkets that are miles apart (food is overrated)...
In order to live in Vancouver u need to make lots of money it’s really expensive to buy a house in Vancouver and Toronto. I would rather go to a province that has less people personally. Toronto has housing bidding wars
Yeahh thats so true! Cant afford anything here unless you went very far north in BC! I heard other provinces are defs more affordable
@@SashSays Montreal is a good place to live the houses aren’t that expensive. Even better you can buy a 4 plex and live for free in one of the apartments and have your tenants pay your mortgage through rent. Lots of people do this in Montreal. And when people say you need to know French yes people should learn some French to at least communicate a little.
Hotels are overpriced in both cities .Summers are way hotter in Toronto and yeah there seems to be more job opportunities in Toronto. Toronto downtown is bigger than Vancouver and both cities have skid rows .
Vancouver only wins in nature and weather, rest Toronto is best.
@@asakurayoh3909 nah
Skid row in Toronto? There are definitely lower income areas in Toronto, but those "sketchy" areas are comparable to Chinatown or Gastown in Vancouver. There is nothing even remotely similar to East Hastings anywhere else in Canada; that is what one would call a true "skid row". Nothing like that in Toronto. In general, crime rates in Western Canadian cities are higher than Eastern.
@@bobbbxxx East Hastings is just one street; it doesn't even include an entire neighborhood.
@@julieerin115 You completely minimalize and underestimate the poverty in downtown Vancouver. Just a heads up, there is absolutely nothing in Canada anything like it. It's a shame but you are not alone; most people in Vancouver try to sweep it under the carpet.
There is a lot of nature around Toronto if you aren't just hanging out on Queen St lol. People go to Queen West and Union Station area and decide that tiny area represents all of Toronto
Im loking for accommodation from canada vancouver britsh colombia arean can you help me
I would recommend downloading the booking.com app! Or “hostelworld”.. airbnb is pricey but also great! Look at the top rated places 😘😘🇨🇦🇨🇦
Thanks dear
Toronto is the Holiest city in the world
Vatican City and Mecca might dispute that 😂
whats his profession?
He was in the bar industry… managing bars when in Toronto and before in YVR.
.and as of recently his career has changed into real estate management.
@@SashSays can he talk about those two industries
@@unnecessary982 what would you like to know?? He has only been in his new career recently
@@SashSays how did he get into these industry? How did u two meet? When u worked in the same restaurant?

hope this helps!! 🙌
Most liveable cities for polar bears
More jobs in Toronto and alot of immigrants all over the world
It's basically the same s---t ! Drug addicts everywhere and depressing environment in both cities. Living in Toronto is like being in an emergency room 247 loud sirens make your life a living hell. The best is to get out of Canada.
yeah elliott said the same thing :( lots of noise and crime unfortunately despite lots of pros of this city! x
Really???
what are the best bars to work in toronto ? :) best !
I have noo clue sorry!!! I would defs go in person to check them out as a patron before applying to get a vibe. Thats what i did in Vancouver!
@@SashSays nice ! appreciate for the tip :)
