Young People in the City

This article on Money Sense asks “Can young people afford to live in the city anymore?” It then goes on to explain how young people can survive in a city.

I must admit, when I started to work in Toronto, I got an entry level job and I shared a two bedroom apartment with 3 other girls. That was all I could afford at the time. This was in the late 1960’s. I have always lived below my means. I did save money but never really started to invest until the 1970’s. I ended up in a 3 bedroom apartment with one other girl, but when I moved in, there were 3 of us.

I find that most young people seem to want their own apartments. I personally liked sharing an apartment. When there was 4 of us in a two bedroom, there was always someone to go out with. I also made live on friends with most of the people I shared with.
