There are moving stories posted on this message board....let's see, forgot where exactly, but you might find several that you'd relate to, with respect to age and finding employment. Congrats - I for one think this would be an excellent location for a life together!

Hello Dave,

Which Island and what type of job will you be looking for?

There are average apartment prices in the Cost of Living section of this site. Click on Home at the top left and then from there select Cost of Living from the main navigation.

You will have a hard time finding a 4 bedroom apartment - they aren't common. 3 bedrooms will be difficult too. You will find 3-4 bedroom houses still with some difficulty.
