The Nova Scotia Advantage
It's true that Alberta businesses are attracting Nova Scotia's talented workers with the draw of big bucks. But you'll also need big bucks to live there.
In Calgary the average price of a home is $393,000. In Nova Scotia, the average price is about $169,000. Here, you can buy a home, or two, and perhaps a cottage on the water for the same as the averaged-priced house in Calgary.
Nova Scotia offers a unique lifestyle that we cherish and visitors envy. In Nova Scotia, you can balance a job filled with exciting challenges and a life outside of work that is rich and fulfilling. Through balance, you can find harmony, one of Nova Scotia's most compelling advantages in a global economy.
Come to prosper…Come to live…Come to know the New Nova Scotia.
