Just you, or a family as well? Plenty of threads on the forum if you do a quick search which will give you some info.

Lots of transient male workers working in the oil industry.
They earn a good wage so things tend to be more expensive.

I wouldn't want to live there permanently, but up to a year would be OK.

Thanks for that. I would be coming for around a year with my partner

lots of re-building needed after the major forest fire last year. Large parts of town are still basically a disaster area.
