I'm a accountant and I've found I'm still on the fence after all this time. The community is pretty good and there's always something going on.

Weather-wise, the summers are solid and winters are wild. You get used to it after the first year.

I've lived in Maple Ridge for about 5 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.

I love the pace of life here. When I first moved here from Atlanta, I was surprised by pet-friendliness. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.

A few things worth knowing:
- Nice parks and green spaces
- Good internet infrastructure
- The walkability scene is challenging

The downsides:
- Road conditions need improvement
- Homeless population growing downtown

Overall I'd rate it 5/10 for singles. Happy to answer more specific questions..
