How do I find a place to live in Vancouver?
We asked expats how they chose their neighborhood and found a place to live. They answered...
"One of the best ways to find a place to live in Vancouver is to use online resources such as Craigslist, Kijiji, and PadMapper. These websites allow you to search for rental properties in Vancouver and surrounding areas. Additionally, you can also use local newspapers and real estate agents to find rental properties. It is also a good idea to attend open houses and viewings to get a better idea of the rental market in Vancouver. Finally, networking with friends and family who live in the area can be a great way to find out about potential rental properties," said a member in Vancouver, Canada.

"I bought a house near where my daughter initially wanted to go to school. She changed her mind before we moved in, wanting to attend school in a different town. So we moved 4500 miles together only to live 30 miles apart. She boarded, came home at weekends. Soon as my residency permit came through, I sold the house and bought one in the gulf islands," remarked another expat who made the move to Vancouver, Canada.
