Fort McMurray
Not worth visiting!
A review of this place: This down is the epitome of unlivable
This is probably the worst town in Canada. It’s a small secluded town with big-town crime.
I live here, and I can safely say I wish I could leave.
This is the worst town to work in because no matter how much you make, everything is proportionately as expensive as anywhere else in Canada. A great example of this would be that the average trailer in Fort Mcmurray is $320,000, and the average one room apartment is $1,200 a month.
It’s a horrible city to raise your kids in because the schools a horrible, and lack proper funding and care. The high schools are havens for drug addicts.
It’s a horrible place to live. The town is extremely noisy, the people are rude, the services are unfriendly and the crime is extremely high for such a small town. Not too long ago, a problem at at Syncrudes UE-1 project caused the whole time to smell like cat urine, and it was very unpleasant. This persisted for days until Syncrude was told by Health Canada to shut UE-1 down.
The only thing I would recommend about this city is to stay away from it. There are plenty of other places to make money.
