Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem decent.
I've been here 10 years and it was the best decision I ever made. The thing nobody mentions is dating scene. It's reasonable and it affects daily life more than you'd think.
That said, the public transit is legit. And if you're into biking, this place is pretty good.
Neighborhood matters A LOT here. The Lakewood side vs the Riverside side are basically different cities. Make sure you visit both before deciding.
No regrets on my end..

I'm a sales manager and I've found it was the best decision I ever made. The community is pretty good and there's always something going on.

I've lived in Maple Ridge for about 8 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.
I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now. When I first moved here from Pittsburgh, I was surprised by job market. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.
A few things worth knowing:
- Nice parks and green spaces
- Good healthcare facilities
- The cultural scene scene is pretty good
The downsides:
- Summers can be brutally hot
- Not a lot of cultural diversity
Overall I'd rate it 8/10 for families. It's not for everyone but it works for us..
