It doesn't get much prettier scenery-wise (ocean AND mountains, what more could you want?!), lots of restaurants/bars, great shopping, hiking/outdoor activities, and so many different areas to visit within the city (Kitsalano, Yaletown, Granville Island, Gastown, etc.) - all this with friendly people and a high quality of living... *sigh* I love this place!!! Feel lucky to live so close by. Enjoy Matt! I’m from a suburb of Vancouver and although I’m a bit biased here, I think Vancouver is simply amazing.

Vancouver is a great city and while I’m not often homesick (I currently am living the expat life in Tokyo), I often find myself reminded of how lucky I was to be born and raised in the city and eagerly await my opportunities to go ‘home’ and visit family and friends.

I think I need to explore our upward neighbhors more. My roommate, who's Canadian, said she'd never been there either. She said they were about to move there at one point because her father was so in love with it. Never been there, always been into Toronto, instead.

So far I've never heard anyone say anything bad about the city either. I agree with Wendy, the quality of life does look outstanding compared to other American cities.

The quality of life looks excellent in terms of living there. This is a city I have wanted to see for a long time. The quality of life looks excellent in terms of living there.

Similar to your last comment, I have only ever heard good things about Vancouver by people who have been there. A mix of Sydney and Melbourne can't be bad (depending on which bits you pick from each place!!). I’d love to go and it has been on my list for some time.

It is my favourite Canadian city. I can't say in the world...yet - but it would surely be hard to beat. I LOVE Vancouver! It is my favourite Canadian city.
