The minimum wage here on PEI is currently (as of April 1st 2024) $15.40 rising to $16 per hour in October, or about 50% higher than was reported in this video. The average house price on the island is currently (May 2024) just shy of $362,000, again, over 50% more than stated here. Where are you getting your stats, the 2010s? We are also not known for having mild winters, and singing sands are not, by any means, 'unique'.
@Olichi60 not 360K as average home prices.. 200-250 K you ll get a nice house,not mobil home, prices now aug sept 2024.info provided by this video is mostly pretty relevant. except minimum or average salaries. but unfortunately job market and wages are ...not so nice.
@@artiomthomas7040 Average house price $390,000. For 200-250K you might find a mini home outside of the cities. Speaking as somebody who lives on the island and who works in real estate, your stats are just plain wrong.
There are errors and misleading information in this presentation. Such as, the minimum wage amount (currently $16/hr), the low housing cost (minimum cost is inaccurate) and the Island is currently facing an affordable housing crisis! Another falsehood is our school system. It is ranked the lowest in Canada. Something omitted was health care. Low availabilities of a family doctor and lack of specialists. Islanders travel out of province for special care of common health issues. There's more. But do more research and ignore this clip!!
@ericmyers3561 i m not in PEI,but in Qc, unfortunately. i m gathering info about PEI to move in. Do not like Qc at all....and based on what I have read and watched about last 6 months, info is pretty much relevant. except minimum wages. but it might depend on fields or something .Beautiful video and interesting.
@@artiomthomas7040I would urge you to continue to research if you find this video accurate. As a resident of the island, here is my take. You will not find an “average home” for $250k. For your standard 3 bedroom, 1 bathroom bungalow, you are looking at closer to 350k. If it’s more than a 30 minute drive from either of our cities, Charlottetown and Summerside, or if it’s a mobile home or condo, you MIGHT find something in reasonable condition for 250K. Jobs are difficult to find unless you work a trade. Due to increased immigration and our post-secondary institutions dramatically increasing their number of students, entry-level jobs or jobs requiring unskilled labourers are hard to find. Our minimum wage jumps to $16/hour next month. However, on anything close to that wage, unless you live at home or have roommates, finding an affordable place to live is impossible. That’s assuming you can FIND a place to live. Our population is closer to 175,000 and rising. Cost of living is rising as well. Heating your home in the winter is expensive as we primarily use oil for heat, which has seen its price per litre almost double in the past 5 years. Heat pumps are pushed heavily on us, but when temperatures dip to -20C and beyond (which they often do), their efficiency plummets. Add to that the increased electricity rates in the winter months. The cost of most groceries is comparable with the rest of the country. Alcohol, however, is much more expensive here. While we do a decent job of having special events and activities during the summer months, there isn’t much going on here for 6 months of the year. If one were to move here from a larger urban area of the country, be prepared to be shocked at how slow-paced this province can be. I love this province. I’m an islander born and raised with no intention to ever leave. I say all this as a rebuttal to the video. It’s not accurate, and if you were to relocate here, you should have an accurate take on what living here is actually like. Best of luck
Also, that supermarket, I swear is not in PEI, most of the videos aren’t. PEI does not have specialised teaching for children with needs. October 2023 PEI population was 175,000+.

250k was maybe pre-pandemic. Housing prices have tripled province-wide since the introduction of the PNP in 2016.

Wow
I wish I will live there
@edward.kmutama8211. what does refrain you from doing that?;)
You forgot to mentioned about variety of seafood 🦞
Are there enough part-time jobs available for international students?
Are there enough full-time jobs for Masters students in education after graduation to help obtain PR? @Econotravel
Nova Scotia might be a better choice.
no!
As an Islander, our infrastructure is stretched like Joan Rivers’ face. Please don’t move here unless you are a medical professional.
Pei is heaven to me
I am coming for my MBA program in September 2024. Please are there enough part-time jobs available?
Are there enough full-time jobs for Masters students in education after graduation to help obtain PR?
