Born and raised in Van/New West moved to Calgary due to rising costs/rent. I would have recommended moving there a few years ago before Covid hit but since Covid Vancouver has become a very expensive city to live in. If it is something you want to do make sure you both have secure jobs and income as rent in Van is very expensive. Also if you’re looking at moving to downtown Van area I wouldn’t recommend it with a little one as Vancouver has become unsafe due to the rising homelessness issue. I would recommend looking into the surrounding areas, North Van, North Burnaby, Port Moody, Coquitlam and Port Coquitlam, New Westminster (queens park and hume park area great for fams!) are areas I would recommend families to look into if you are wanting to move out there. Vancouver is a beautiful great city with beautiful surrounding areas and lots to do for kids and families! I would just recommend being secure and looking into those areas if you’re interested in moving there fully! Good luck 😊
Thank you mamas, this is very helpful ❤️
Bring lots of money. I lived in Vancouver 15 years ago and I worked for a real estate agent who couldn’t even afford to purchase her own home. It’s beautiful and there is so much to do in the city and it’s the gateway for so many fun adventures.
