它是便宜，住在中美. 或加拿大? 哪个国家的生活质量更好?

最近 Investopia 发表, 美国. 或加拿大: 哪个国家是最好的给家里打电话?, considered a variety of factors, including average salaries, 食品和其他日常生活用品的费用, 卫生保健, post-secondary education, 和育儿假.

While the analysis was perhaps oversimplified, the conclusions were:

Average salaries are similar 在这两个国家.

General cost of living is somewhat higher in Canada. 食品成本, in particular, 在加拿大高.

Cost of post-secondary education is much lower in Canada.

医疗保健的成本要高得多，在中美., and health insurance is not universally available.

Canada has much more generous social services, including its parental leave policy.

The summary? 从长远来看, families will fare better in Canada, because of the lower health and education costs and more liberal social policies.

你怎么看? Are there other important factors to consider in assessing cost and quality of life?

If you’ve moved between the U.S. 和加拿大, 请发表评论 并分享您的经验.
