Kingston is a small (population 150,000) city with a major university (Queen’s), an excellent four-year college (St Lawrence), and an important military academy (Royal Military College). It is a so-called “university town.” Housing, unfortunately, is expensive: a small house can be rented for a minimum of about $3,000 per month, while a 2-bedroom apartment is around $1,500 per month. However, it is a user-friendly town with numerous outdoor activities: miles of running paths, a number of parks along the river, and numerous cultural activities (concerts, theatre, live music, etc.). It’s also a great place to bring up children, as it is a safe environment. Kingston is also strategically located: it is only two hours from Ottawa, three from Montreal and three from Toronto.
