In terms of wants and needs we do not have too much.
-Schools looking to hire as my spouse is a teacher
-If it is a very small town ideally it would be within a couple hours if a big city for shopping.
-I am looking for a location that has employers who have rotational schedule (4 on 4 off, 7/7 etc)
I am a HD mechanic so should have options.
-Ideally not 8 months of winter but we can wish.
-Cost of living not outrageous
-Not top of the list but a decent hospital would be nice.
-Not a town that is not crashing or relies on one industry to support it
-Closer to hunting and fishing the better but not a priority this time.
I moved from Edmonton to Medicine hat a year ago this past fall. If i had it to do over again I would have started looking for a Doctor 6 months before I moved here, luckily I can still do phone call visits with my Edmonton GP. other than the Dr. situation I love Medicine Hat. 20 minutes to the rifle range, 20 minutes to the trap club, 15 minutes to Costco, and in 30 minutes you can be ice fishing. A nice house is many thousand less than most other cities in Alberta plus there is a satalite town called Redcliffe if you don't want to be in the Big City.......lol
