Curious what people think. I'm retired and Average temperature is around 73--F, so it's warm year-round. Median household income is $79,789, which feels about average for the area. Rent is about $1,774/month for a decent place. Poverty rate is 3.7%, which is pretty low. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. What are your go-to spots? Night life is decent if you know the right spots.

My experience has been mostly positive. there are trade-offs but the good outweighs the bad. The only thing I'd watch out for is walkability. Other than that, Feel free to reach out with questions..

We moved here with our family and I love the pace of life here. Schools in Maple Ridge area are hit or miss. Kids love it here.

I've been living here for 1 years and I'd say I love the pace of life here. The cultural scene is challenging compared to other places I've lived. Overall No regrets on my end..

From a safety perspective, it really depends on the area. Some neighborhoods are hit or miss, others not so much. Do your research on specific streets.
