Best hidden gems in Lowes Island

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.
