About Vancouver Canada

Vancouver BC is rated as one of the top cities to live in the world. The diversity of culture and geography is astounding, making it a haven for people who love nature and the outdoors life. The city is situated on the edge of English Bay and the coastal mountain range.

Vancouver's people enjoy the best of all world's with quick access to downhill skiing at Grouse Mountain in the north end of the city and the ski resorts of Whistler to the Northwest along the Sea to Sky Highway. Mountain climbing, rock climbing, mountain biking, kayaking, sailing, wind surfing, and hiking are very popular sports in the Vancouver area.

Vancouver will host the upcoming Olympic Winter games in 2010. This will create a challenge for those relocating to the area for business or to train for the games. Vancouver's housing stock is very highly priced as land in greater Vancouver is scarce. The density of housing makes Vancouver a unique place to live and spawns creativity and innovation.

Vancouver's population is now about 600,000 giving it just the right combination of personal contact and big city amenities. The climate is one of the mildest in Canada and is rarely severe in winter.

Vancouver is located about 300 miles from the BC interior and the cities of the Okanagan Valley and about 650 miles from Calgary Alberta. The Vancouver Airport is located in the south end of the city in the suburb of Richmond. The Transcanada highway ends in Vancouver where it merges with highway 99. Translink is Vancouver's transit system providing buses and a light rail train service. The Skytrain offers an above ground transit to and from the communities of Burnaby, Surrey, Port Moody, Coquitlam, and Maple Ridge.
