Average temperature is around 66--F, so the weather is moderate. The median home value here is around $251,900, which seems about average. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. The food scene here is surprisingly good. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much.

I'm a contractor and I've found I'm still on the fence after all this time. The community is pretty good and there's always something going on.

Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem challenging.
I've been here 2 years and I genuinely enjoy living here. The thing nobody mentions is cost of living. It's developing and it affects daily life more than you'd think.
That said, the housing market is legit. And if you're into photography, this place is excellent.
Neighborhood matters A LOT here. The Maple Ridge side vs the East side are basically different cities. Make sure you visit both before deciding.
