Winnipeg Life

Winnipeg is a quirky, culturally diverse, four-season city with something for everyone. It is vibrant with color, character, early 20th-century architecture as well as year-round cultural festivals. 

As we are located in the center of the continent, we get a lot of brightness and sunlight even in the wintertime. 

Some cool facts about Winnipeg: 

• It was the first city in the world to develop the 911 emergency number. 
• It has the longest (not largest) natural outdoor rink. 
• There are over 600 murals in Winnipeg and a fantastic amount of street art. 
• The Royal Winnipeg Ballet is Canada's oldest dance company. It is also the longest continuously operating ballet company in North America. 
• It is home to "The Forks" - the junction where the Red River and Assiniboine River meet. 

Winnipeg is the perfect blend of a lively city and a bit slower pace of life unlike other larger cities. You will find Winnipeggers to be friendly and welcoming, making it one of the best places to live.
