Living in Ottawa
Canada · cold
Ottawa is a big city of roughly 1,000,000 people inland in Canada. The climate is cold. It keeps a balanced mix of locals and visitors and is considered very safe. A typical month of living costs around $2,000. Healthcare is strong, and the internet is fast enough for full-time remote work. People come here for history, cycling, skiing.
Il servizio sanitario pubblico (5/5) è più solido del privato: qui l’assicurazione è un extra, non una necessità. Chi nasce in Canada è cittadino, quale che sia la nazionalità dei genitori.
