Oneof my usual websites has a good real estate site..it's MLS,so most realtors are in it. If you're interested,it's "www.isaintjohn.com" [even some give virtual tours of the houses!]
Anyone here from Saint John, NB
- Thread starter hairball
- Start date
Hairball, do you have kids? That might determine where you want to be. And what sort of accomodations you want.
Thank you very much for the info and web link, TenPenny and missile. And sorry for my late reply. There has been a change of plan and I no longer know if I'll be working part-time for the party concerned. Originally it was intended that I helped him to startup and settle down in Saint John.
missile said:I've lived in Saint John forever,so I have the knowledge on the place. Union & Dorchester, as a place to live-NO WAY! Union used to be part of the uptown business area, but today there are only a number of bars along it's stretch. Dorchester used to be where all the major whorehouses existed,now torn down and nothing to replace them.4 to 5 hundred a month would get you a decent rental on the West Side. Your driver's license is good here for a fewe months,but you have to change over to ours eventually. Medicare cardsare isssued free here,probably you'd have to contact them and get a replacement. There are jobs,too,but mostly in the Call Center industry..but that depends of your range of skills .The major employer here is The Irving Group[refineries,newspaper,machines shops,ship chandlers,gas stations,convenience stores,building supplies[just about any industry you can think of..Irving has control of it]
Well, I'm from Saint John too, and was going to reply, but Missile just about covered it.

Sure was, only 14 years old at the time, but I was here.
Why, do I know you?
Colpy is a nickname that I was given at about that time.
Edited to add: that's Saint John, New Brunswick

Re: RE: Anyone here from Saint John, NB
Sorry, I don't.
People get confused about names in this part of the country, as there is a St. John's, Newfoundland, and a Saint John, New Brunswick. (Saint John is always spelled in the long form in a somewhat futile attempt to differentiate it from St. John's Newfoundland)
I am ashamed to admit I have never been to Newfoundland.
