Life in Saskatchewan, Canada
Located in the heart of Western Canada, Saskatchewan offers more than a career – it offers a high quality of life.
Known for its hospitality and friendliness, life in Saskatchewan is also something you can afford! In August 2025 the price of an average house (~2000 sq. feet) in Saskatchewan was £197,785.
Our average commute to work is only 20 minutes! Saskatchewan is 2.7 times the size of the United Kingdom with less than half the population.
Home to roughly 100,000 beautiful fresh water lakes with big sandy beaches. 1/2 of our provincial landmass is covered by forest, 1/3 is farmland and 1/8 is freshwater. We are known as the sunniest province in Canada, with nearly 2,400 sunny hours per year.
