Back to Top Housing In Canada, people generally live in single dwelling homes, or in apartments. Both these types of accommodation are available for rent or sale. You should be prepared, upon arrival, to spend some time in a temporary lodging such as a hotel until you can make suitable arrangements, unless you have pre-arranged accommodation.
