I've lived in Vancouver Fraserview for 10 years and honestly hated most of my time there. In the last few years when it was tenants galore and the already narrow streets had cars filling up on the daily, it was the last straw.

Sometimes, boring is good. Burnaby is still relatively similar to what it was when I grew up in Canada; minus the high rises. Location being a key seller, I'm a short drive away from the "interesting stuff". Isn't that why we have cars? My family sure as heck didn't move across the Pacific to live in another metropolis to commute on public transit and live inside a 500 sq ft box.
