The Ty Mitchell Group Understands the Unique Needs of Families Moving to Winnipeg
Are you and your family thinking about relocating to Winnipeg? You’re not alone—every year, more families are drawn to Winnipeg’s affordability, strong job market, and welcoming communities. Whether you’re moving from another province or just a few hours away, making the move with your family is a big decision.
At the Ty Mitchell Group, we’ve helped many families make a smooth transition into and out of Winnipeg. In this guide, you’ll find everything you need to know about moving here—from housing and schools to healthcare and lifestyle—and how we can make the process as seamless as possible.
Why Families Are Relocating to Winnipeg
Winnipeg continues to offer one of the most affordable housing markets in Canada. Many families are pleasantly surprised by how much home they can get here—whether that’s a bigger backyard, more bedrooms, or being closer to parks and top-rated schools.
On top of that, Manitoba has no land transfer tax under certain price thresholds, and the overall cost of living is lower than in many other provinces.
Relocating to Winnipeg: What to Know About Schools
Education is one of the top priorities for families making a move. Winnipeg offers a variety of public, private, French immersion, and faith-based schools. Some districts also offer specialized programs in the arts, sciences, or skilled trades.
A good place to start your research is the Manitoba School Directory. We can help you narrow down neighbourhoods that fit your family’s needs, including school catchment areas that align with your preferences.
Healthcare Access When Relocating to Winnipeg
When you move to Manitoba, you’ll need to apply for the Manitoba Health Services Insurance Plan (MHSIP). In most cases, your previous province’s coverage will stay active during the transition period.
Winnipeg has excellent healthcare options, including major hospitals, walk-in clinics, and family physicians. We can help you explore communities with convenient access to the healthcare services you need.
Will Winnipeg Feel Like Home?
Winnipeg is known for its diverse neighbourhoods, vibrant arts and culture scene, green spaces, and family-focused events. Whether you enjoy year-round festivals, outdoor recreation, or quiet suburban living, there’s a community here that will feel like home.
