I think Mission, maple ridge, and Abbotsford is as east as I'm willing to go. Anything else is like an hour+ drive without traffic which is impossible unless you come back out at the 3 am.
Abby seems up and coming the new mall seems pretty cool. But the floods kinda scared me. Not sure what there is to do though cuz all of those places seems to be pretty small town feel with just a small town center. I guess if you need Asian stuff you will at least have to drive back out to Coquitlam for TNT or h Mart.
Even Abby seems kinda far cuz it's another 30 min from Langley. Not sure why there's nothing, no development between Langley and Abby. I just see farms and cow fields.
