One quick thing. The City of Victoria proper is actually quite small. (100,000 as mentioned). But Greater Victoria is actually a mid sized city with about 400,000. Not that small and quaint as they have you believe.
@simonlangmead7 Жыл бұрын
People overlook that, Vancouver is only about 675,000 population, but the entire lower mainland including Vancouver is over 2.6 million. Population of Victoria is really 400,000. Other areas are only a street width away from each other, so it’s all the same thing.

Might wanna highlight some downsides as well. Low vacancy rates, crime increases and drug use around the downtown area, the job market isn't great unless you have a degree or trades tickets. The City has many bicycle lanes, also the Galloping Goose Trail which makes cycling a very fast way to get around town and to other subcommunities further north.

As a resident, crime and drug use on the rise (10th safest in canada? How many big cities are in canada?), lovely residential walks and family park near downtown, 3-8 inches of snow in the winter but the whole city shuts down, an ever evolving diversity of artisanal and craft foods/drinks, high cost for goods due to added costs during transportation. If you are renting don't plan on having pets.

Victoria is a lovely city. The waterfront and the views of the Olympic mountains are just stunning. We visited from Oregon back in 2018, and even though it is in another country, it felt just like home. I was struck by how the architecture, natural environment, culture, etc. are so similar to Portland. Great restaurants, too. For having a population of only 100K, it seems like a much bigger and more cosmopolitan city.

It's a beautiful place to live....however, the demand being created for this small region that is land locked by ocean and mountains, has priced many locals who grew up here out. We have a shortage of housing, a lot of outside "investors" buying up property with cash and no conditions with no intention of living here FT. I have lived here for nearly 20 years, make a 6 figure income and still has to consider outside of the city for affordability. Personally, if you move here and contribute to the local economy and support local business and want to bring your family here, we welcome you. If you are an outside real estate investment corporation buying up properties with "no conditions" on real estate listings and pushing out families who actually want to stay here long term - shame on you. Go elsewhere!!

Local residents are saying not to move in Victoria because of crime, drugs and expensive living costs but it's exactly the same in any big city. In Montreal, you have to pay 1bed flat between 1500 to 2200/month for renting. Add also the increase of transport fees, gas, food and insurances, and criminality. There is not enough doctors for everybody here as well. Houses prices start around 700.000/800.000 outside downtown (downtown prices are more around 1 million/ 1.5 millions min.). By the way, Quebec province has one of the highest rate for income taxes. In BC, with a 65.000$ gross salary, you can save 3000$ a year comparing to Quebec.

as a tourist I felt like downtown victoria felt safer, but was really empty. near beacon hill park it was busier then downtown with so many dogs! topaz hill didn't look great in Victoria though. Vancouver felt like it was more vibrant, and it is easier to fly home. Oddly, I felt like Nanaimo had the worst of Vancouver and Victoria- lot of homeless people on the main street, spalling city so it was hard to get around until you got to the motorway. Groceries really were more expensive on the island. Goldstream and Ammonite Falls were really easy to get to from Victoria, but I enjoyed being able to go to Lynn creek by bus in Vancouver. I also found that it was easier to get out and about in Vancouver- you could hop on a plane and there were more destinations, there was the sea to sky drive, or the bus/train to seattle.

I'm a Victorian born and raised This puts a gloss on our City and Island It has many problems due to overpopulation By the way, we call it Uvic, not U V I C! Anyone from here, or who has done some research, knows that! Also, while the drive to Tofino may be only 4.5 hours from Victoria, you drive the Malahat ( no longer a pleasant drive as it was when I was young) and it takes you down a winding route through rock slide country for the last leg.

Why are you making this video when you don’t know basic facts like how to pronounce any of the place names or the population of the city you are talking about?

Can you pronounce every place in every other country? I didn't think so. It's a good video.

Immortal! Nice to hear from you again, alas. Vancouver is not everyone's cup of tea that is for sure! But no one should be unhappy where they live. We hope you find somewhere that makes you happy :)
