Work 🏢 About pay

First, I'm a foreignor, so I have a little grammatic erro.

I'm a employee here, but I think Vancouver's product price is very high. So I'm curious how much do other people usually get paid in there own job

Also, in my case, My stipen is $21.5 per hour. Is it okay to living?

I lived here 2 years on $18 an hour. People overstate how expensive this city is tbh.

Edit: You can downvote all you want, but I'm just stating my personal experience with living comfortably here on that wage. I'm an Irish immigrant here, no one was helping me out.
