Discover the benefits of a health-care career in Merritt

September 22, 2023

Nestled in the heart of the Nicola Valley, the City of Merritt is a beautiful place to call home and explore a career in health care. With its wide array of outdoor recreation activities and more laid back lifestyle, the rural centre has something for everyone.

The Country Music Capital of Canada, located about two hours north of Metro Vancouver, is exponentially more affordable than many places in B.C. While the average sale price for a home in Metro Vancouver hit $1.27 million in July 2023, the average prices in Merritt sit around $575,000.
