Most overrated things about Hurricane

Amelia Lewis Jan 30, 2026

I've lived in Maple Ridge for about 9 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.

I love the pace of life here. When I first moved here from San Diego, I was surprised by housing market. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.

A few things worth knowing:
- Good internet infrastructure
- Affordable housing options
- The weather scene is tough

The downsides:
- Winters are long and cold
- Not very walkable outside downtown

Overall I'd rate it 9/10 for retirees. Feel free to reach out with questions..

Not gonna lie, the first year was rough. But once you find your neighborhood and your people, I have mixed feelings honestly. No regrets on my end..
