My husband and I are thinking of emmigrating. I am a mother of two and would like to hear from anyone who has experience of Nova Scotia. Which are the nicest places to live or visit ? etc We are both x-bikers, have a doggy, and love outdoor life.

Answer:
Nova Scotia is a wonderful place to live. The main centre in Nova Scotia is Halifax, which is presently going through a "mini-boom" - low unemployment and lots of building. Unfortunately, that means that housing prices have gone up quite a bit over the last few years. Halifax has four Universities, a theatre, a symphony, health-food stores, and beautiful scenery, galore. A few years ago, MacLean's magazine, the national magazine of Canada (similar to Time or Newsweek) declared Halifax "The Last Best Place" to live in Canada (and the world). If you are looking for a small town environment, the Valley of Nova Scotia is also a wonderful place to live. It is the agricultural centre and a string of towns - Annapolis Royal, Bridgetown, Middleton, Berwick, Kentville, Wolfville, Windsor, etc, all have a great community feel and are minutes away from nature at its best. Annapolis Royal was voted the best small town to live in the world!! Along the south shore of Nova Scotia you will find incredible oceanfront scenery, beautiful beaches - the community of Lunenberg is a UNESCO heritage site. Peggy's Cove with its rugged coast and its lighthouse are world famous. Cape Breton is an island which comprises the northeast part of Nova Scotia. The decline of the fishery and closure of a steel factory there has meant hard times for that area. But it has the Cabot Trail and some of the most spectacular scenery in the world. If you love the outdoors, you couldn't come to a more beautiful spot. The people of Nova Scotia are warm, welcoming and down-to-earth. If you book a visit, you'll never want to leave!

Halifax offers the atomsphere of small coastal villages, country charm, and wilderness for which Nova Scotia is known. Life revolves around the sea. A very safe environment for living. Whatever your budget, there is an investment here for you. Whether it’s just a small building plot or a hundred acres, a cabin or a mansion, you will find it here. Visitors will find lush vegetation and few, but absolutely delightful, people. You would be hard pushed to find more courteous, laid-back and helpful English speaking folk, only to pleased to welcome you to their Paradise. The air is crisp, clean and bracing. Beware. All Nova Scotians are handymen and it’s not unusual for them to wake up at a weekend and decide to extend the house. A few calls to kinfolk of a promise of a Potluck Supper, the pick-up trucks suddenly appear and everyone beavers away to build a deck or extra bedroom or two. Unfortunately enthusiasm can’t always be matched by professional abilities, so have the prospective home looked at properly. As Nova Scotia is fairly small, buying anywhere in the Province means you can still be within a day’s striking distance of most towns, amenities and stores. Cheap and ample properties can be discovered in the interior along the old logging roads, which in most cases are superior to ordinary highways. If you pick an estate with a river, large stream or lake, bear in mind that in general Canadians (and Grizzlies!!) have the right to fish anywhere that takes their fancy within 30 feet of the bank. The upside is that it equally applies to you. Absolute heaven if you are a keen angler. A Yukon Prospectors finding gold in Rabbit Creek a century ago must have experienced the same excitement as modern day property seekers first landing in Nova Scotia. To say this small Province of Canada is the new Klondike is an understatement, for here you will find nuggets of opportunities just waiting to be picked up and exploited. Not just in real estate but also land and potential business ventures. It's so beautiful you won't want to leave. Beautiful One Day... Perfect The Next.

I am from London, Ontario. Met a woman at a store who just moved to London from Nova Scotia (her husband is in the military). She was in shopper's heaven in London: she said the cost of FOOD is Nova Scotia is exhorbitant! She gave me the price of bananas, bread, etc., and I was so shocked I don't remember the prices to be able to pass them along to you.
