Calidad y Costo de la Vida en los EE.UU. frente a Canadá
¿Es más barato para vivir en el U.S. o Canadá? And which country offers a better quality of life?
En un reciente Investopia enviar, EE.UU.. O Canadá: Qué paÃs es el mejor para llamar a casa?, considered a variety of factors, including average salaries, costo de los alimentos y otros artÃculos de la vida diaria, cuidado de la salud, post-secondary education, y el permiso parental.
While the analysis was perhaps oversimplified, the conclusions were:
Average salaries are similar en los dos paÃses.
General cost of living is somewhat higher in Canada. Costos de los alimentos, in particular, son mayores en Canadá.
Cost of post-secondary education is much lower in Canada.
El costo de la atención de la salud es mucho mayor en el U.S., and health insurance is not universally available.
Canada has much more generous social services, including its parental leave policy.
The summary? A la larga, families will fare better in Canada, because of the lower health and education costs and more liberal social policies.
¿Qué te parece? Are there other important factors to consider in assessing cost and quality of life?
