However, everything changed at the start of the pandemic, and the award-winning actor made the decision to move back to Canada.
What's more, Dan has since been staying at his childhood home where he grew up with parents Eugene Levy and Deborah Divine, and sister Sarah Levy.
The actor, who most recently starred on season four of Sex Education, opened up about his current living situation during a recent appearance on Jessie Ware's podcast Table Manners.

He said: "I'm in my childhood home right now, which is weird – to spend that much time where you were born and raised. But it's inspired a lot of writing at the moment so that's good."
The star explained he'd moved back to Toronto at the beginning of the pandemic, after spending some time in LA where he has a home in Los Feliz.
At the SAG Awards at the beginning of the week, meanwhile, Dan swept up many of the awards for his work on Schitt's Creek from his family's home, where he was joined by Eugene and Sarah.

He added that the pandemic had also inspired him to try to boost his culinary skills. "I tried [making] bolognese, sushi… None of it worked in my favour. I did learn that I have absolutely nothing to offer in the culinary arts," he joked.
Dan has an incredibly close bond with his family. As well as co-producing Schitt's Creek with his father, and starring alongside Eugene and Sarah in the show, his mother also played a huge role behind-the-scenes.

The family have their own production company, and Dan opened up about the dynamic working with them.
"I feel like you are constantly battling the lifelong impulses that you have as a father-and-son situation," he said. "And now my mom is actually working for our production company, so we ended up involving the entire family, so it clearly worked out for the best."
