Hi All, I am moving to Canada with my family . This is our first time in Canada. I will be in Ontario and was looking for some rental suggestions in and round Kitchener . I have the option to work from home so open for any other locations in Ontario which can give me good and affordable accommodations .

Looking For
1) 2 bed room , preferably having dryer/washer in unit. I can afford rent upto 1400
2) Easy access to public transport ( I will not have car initially)
3) Easy access to Indian Grocery Shops.

I saw an apartment at 76 Sydney street south Kitchener not sure how the locality is .

Appreciate suggestions and recommendations .

The Main DRAG is around KING STREET, so look for a place close by. Choose rent under your budget of 1,400/Mnth as some might charge you for the utilities about $120/M. So squeeze a bit initially. If you go slightly out of your way, say 6 miles or 10 klicks away, you will get larger accommodations for the same rent.

The two Indian Grocers are ONKAR and Golden Indian Food & Spices. Then there are Local Chains, Food Basics, No Frills and Freshco. They all carry a Few good deals too.

SATURDAY/SUNDAY Whole day Pass $8.00 for the whole Family, Enjoy the ride and see the town. Also do your Groceries, ON THE LAST STOP and carry the best you can.

Only Apartments have W & D Rooms. A few rentals might have that as an option. So, put it as a last item on your rentals.
