Enterprise Saskatchewan

Cost of Living

Saskatchewan's quality of life is high, while the cost of living is low. That makes the province a great place to live and raise a family, and a great place to locate or invest in a business.

  • Housing costs are lower in Saskatchewan than in most major cities in Canada, and owning a home is affordable and achievable for most people.
  • The health system is second to none, and there are no health care premiums.
  • The provincial sales tax of 5% is the lowest of any province that charges a sales tax.
  • It costs less to get to and from work because the maximum commute time within major cities is about 20 minutes.
