Hi all, The food scene here is surprisingly good. Has anyone dealt with this? It's not perfect, but the community is solid.

I've lived in Maple Ridge for about 8 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.
I have mixed feelings honestly. When I first moved here from Seattle, I was surprised by cost of living. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.
A few things worth knowing:
- Cost of living is very reasonable
- Good airport with direct flights
- The pet-friendliness scene is improving
The downsides:
- Limited shopping options
- Dating scene is rough
Overall I'd rate it 8/10 for remote workers. Would recommend to anyone considering it..

Public transit is pretty good here. You'll probably need a car for most things. it's been a really good experience overall.
