Before moving to Vancouver, it is best to consider where you would specifically want to reside in. For those endeared to the bustling city life, Downtown is an excellent bustling hub of activities and events to move to. For the ones seeking a quiet space with lovely neighborhoods, Kitsilano is a peaceful and wonderful neighborhood to gravitate towards to.

Vancouver is a beautiful city surrounded by mountains and Pacific Ocean beaches. It also has an issue with homelessness and drug overdoses causing an influx of crime and assaults within certain communities in the downtown core. Kitsilano, on the south-west side of the city, is a very laid-back community that encourages cycling, is a hub for eco-friendly artisan shops and also has a low crime rate. The “North Shore” is a large recreational hub consisting of various walking trails, water-based recreation and ski hills that is situated on the northern side of the city on your way to Squamish and Whistler.

It is important to know Vancouver is a very expensive city, and that good accommodation in the downtown can be challenging to find at a suitable price point. Vancouver is a beautiful city with many amenities on offer, from the large, sprawling Stanley Park to the stunning coastline. I would highly recommend living here, but please do make sure that the salary on offer will cover your expenses.
