If you're remote, this place is great for cost of living. I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now. Internet is excellent in most areas.

We moved here with our family and it's not perfect but it works for me. Schools in Westside area are excellent. Kids love it here.

I've been living here for 15 years and I'd say there are trade-offs but the good outweighs the bad. The cultural scene is better than expected compared to other places I've lived. Overall Good luck with whatever you decide..

Hot take but it's exactly what I was looking for. I know a lot of people disagree but after 2 years here, that's my honest assessment.

Came here for a job opportunity and stayed because it exceeded my expectations. The weather is honestly tough and I don't see that changing anytime soon.

Used to live on the Meadowbrook side, now on the Maple Ridge side. Completely different vibe. I'm still on the fence after all this time.

I'd say the biggest thing people don't talk about is community vibe. it's exactly what I was looking for. Worth doing your research before committing.

Depends on what you're looking for honestly. If you want community vibe, then yeah this place is great. But if pet-friendliness matters to you, might want to look elsewhere.
