06:35 BIG YES. Wherever you live, the bigger the city, the more people won't care each other. The smallest city, people will build a community. It's called human's survival mode
When I lived there for 3 years I had the best time of my life. No car, living in North Van, studying Downtown, and having lots of friends and rain....love it! Thanks for the video.
We call it the "Vancouver experiment" in our family. Two members tried it for a few years and both ended up moving back to a much less expensive part of Canada.
Since you released this video things have changed big time! Most places are 400-600 more than they were last year. I'm now finding bachelor basement suites for 1800-2000. 1bd for 2500.. This city has become unaffordable for the common person without rich parents.
at 14 living here since i was born, this city isn't unfriendly. i meet so many random people while I'm out and about and have had some great interactions but also so bad ones to. i think its the fact that people don't look friendly, I've been told many times that i look mad at people when i just living life so i would chalk it up to that. literally if you are trying to make friends go to the beach, the beach is usually full of nice people. i would say one of the best memories I have is starting a open court volleyball tournament with many 15 strangers.
Lots of people use Facebook groups to connect with others 👌 And sometimes the people who list the apartments will be renting out the other bedroom they have available.
Hey Adam, another great video! Frankly much of what you are saying could apply to many other cities. A few observations. First if you go to Craigslist and check for 2 bedroom apts in Vancouver (not greater Vancouver) 1500 to 2000 a month you get 851 hits. Try the same in Edmonton or Calgary at 0 to 2000 month 2 bedroom and you get 81 hits COMBINED!!! And both of those cities are far larger in space and population than Vancouver. So more choice and more cool neighborhoods in Vancouver. Second, your point of going carless is far more doeable here in Vancouver due to weather and extremely safe and efficient transit, once again compared to Edmonton. Trust me we moved here 8 years ago from Edmonton. Ditched the car, got transit passes and a motorcycle. I live in the westend and work in Burnaby. One last thing. Treat yourself to the new Safeway on Davies with FREE covered parking!! Cheers.
yesterday i saw the average rent of a 1 bedroom here is now $2500 . its so expensive now and i have been here 30 years . its the last 10 years that it got unaffordable really . living now between toronto and vancouver i would say toronto is way more friendly. winter is many many months of rain and there is near constant construction and road work throughout the city . don't expect the great street shopping of new york or even bloor west village . main st is cool but mostly for restaurants and specialty retail , parts of kits are this way too but generally you will have to travel a bit for grocery and essentials. transit is just ok not great . so i would say if you already have a car and lots of money you will like it here but you will have to be ok with lots of rain and a fairly chilly local population .
Great video man - super informative about Vancity but from a unique perspective. Sharing a place if definitely the way to go until you have enough $$ to take over the entire place yourself. Then in the end if you have a stable partner you end up with a nice place with a guest room/office!
A few things; The insurance company does not "take advantage" of young drivers. Young drivers are responsible for the most accident claims. You are a higher risk. 2. People that live downtown are the worst, especially Kitsilano. You will not find more pretentious, self absorbed people. 3. Biggest thing; it rains from October to April, and then still rains a lot in the summer. Total, about 8 to 9 months of the year. The weather in B.C. sucks.
Yup, the more people you live with the less your pay, my experience living in a villa in W Van 😎 yes, less privacy but since March 2020 I really appreciate having people around, plus I have my own bathroom and huge room, so it really works out great; with friends same, you have to find things that you like doing and then it’s easier; cars - yeah, crazy insurance and parking... and yeah, feeling disconnected a bit in the city yes, but it’s not an unfriendly city at all, small neighborhoods are great 👍
Please tell us about the nicest residential/suburban areas to live in away from the city, even the expensive ones. I'd just like to know about any nice neighbourhoods around there that I could move to. Thank you 💞🌼😊
Live in Richmond or Delta. Depending on what are you looking for in a place to live, you may want to consider the other areas surrounding Vancouver like Port Moody or Port Coquitlam, or Coquitlam and even Surrey, the biggest city in the Metro Vancouver area. North Van is a good place too but it's also pricey and parking like Vancouver is almost always an issue, but not as bad.
North and West Vancouver are nice large homes but you'll need a car in most of it. Richmond and Coquitlam are pretty convenient, cheaper, clean and pretty nice. Both are linked to Downtown Vancouver via a direct train line.
Did you know Vancouver has great transit? ICBC does not take advantage of drivers but you do pay based on what you drive and your record. I saw a truck in this video soooo. ... ya more expensive
@@vancityplantie5752 actually it’s a self-funded not for profit created for the benefit of us drivers. Sadly, the last government (Christy Clarke) looted the coffers to balance her budget. We were robbed.
I have lived in Kits for 30 years. Very expensive. Lovely people and great community but minimum wage would mean sharing a place with a couple of people. When you move and immediately start work or school it is much easier to meet people, but that is true of anywhere. Vancouver is very laid back and I welcome nee people whenever I meet them. Yup, you go to the beach a lot when it's new! Like most things, when living here for many years, not so much! But when you first move here, for sure the beach is a huge draw! I love Kits, in part, because it's such a fabulous walking community. I have a lovely car but rarely need it. It's a huge environmental city, and we love car alternatives. Vancouver is awesome!!
Hi Adam. It is useful information. Thanks mate. It is not so far then UK, the same things...It is depense of what are you doing...But in my vew If the income is two time over minimum wage its ok. Thanks pal. Take care... 🇨🇦❤👍
Just the economic part and how expensive it is is a huge deal breaker for me, I'm going to stick to Niagara falls for now until I become Rich to live there 😆
I think vancouver is not as friendly as Montreal and Calgary. It’s easy to get frustrated in vancouver. bad traffic, high living expensive, get raped probably the most in Canada( icbc, sells tax etc), construction everywhere etc
I graduated from an online college program and want to move to Vancouver, Delta or Richmond (but the goal is to ultimately work in Vancouver not necessarily live there. ) What program do I need to apply for to be able to go to Canada from the US? Im apparently not eligible for express entry. What other options do I have? thanks for the info
Most likely you will still need a working visa to get into the Canadian economy. You will pay Canadian taxes with the money that you make from that job. You should apply for a working visa for Canada- but you will have to have a job lined up here and for them to sponsor you. Assuming you get the Visa, you may work and/or live in Canada if you desire until you leave that job or stay for a certain amount of years, at which point you will be able to get citizenship if you stayed for long enough or married a Canadian, or go back to the United States.
When did an "order" or a "mandate" become a "Law"?? A law is an enforceable set of rules approved by the majority of representatives of the people who voted for those representatives to represent those peoples best interests. Mandates and orders are being issued by individuals who were not voted to represent the people. And they are promoting these orders and mandates as "laws". And they are not. Until people rise up and rebel in large enough numbers, such that it overwhelms the system of control, the people will be controlled by those with ulterior motives. All in the disguise of safety for the masses.
I live in Vancouver. We pay 1,435.00. we've been here 5 years and it's gone up 35 dollars. Maybe depends where you live. We live on East Hastings heading into Burnaby.
That area is quite decent but it isnt near the "beach." I'm guessing you and I are like most Vancouverites not driving a jacked up truck and expecting free parking in the most dense city in NA. Lol
@@matthewthiesen6098 lol. Hear ya! We lived in White Rock before this. Five mun from beach give years ago and paid 1200 for a 1000 square feet apartment. It was beauty!
Is there any city other than Vancouver that you’d like to live in, some time in your life/future? I think this is such an interesting question! For instance, I would like to do Barcelona or Vienna 😃
Yes possibly! But I haven't decided where yet because I feel I've got lots of good opportunities in Vancouver at the current time. Somewhere exotic down the road I'm thinking 🙂
@@AdamJBell I think you would enjoy Prague for some reason, it is a cool city! I might relocate to Kopenhagen for the next chapter of my life, who knows where I will end up 🤣
Most of the friendly people I've met are international or from Ontario/west side of Canada. The locals in Vancouver are more reserved and not so much friendly
If you ever get a bike for commuting, I'd like to hear your take on it. I still commute by bike, but I rarely bike for pleasure anymore here, too dangerous.
Yo I wanna move to Vancouver from Johannesburg, but do I first have to apply for citizenship, then rent a place to live in? Oh how bout cars? I bet i can rent cars too, right?
No need for cars in Vancouver. Every place can be cover by our transit system which includes buses, sky train/subway and sea buses which cross the waters.
Hey Adam, Please make a detailed video on Canadian healthcare, the long waiting time, the nurses drama, no doctors come till you are not going to die etc I have watched it in other RUclips channel But, Since you are a native born Canadian your experience matters...
It’s not that bad at all. Yes, elective surgeries have waitlisted, but if you need medical help, it fast and free. Breaking and arm (like both my kids did this winter) will not bankrupt you.
We are planning to move to Vancouver in a couple of months from Saskatchewan...Hope we make good friends there as I am an extremely emotional person...how is Surrey to live in? I feel it is slightly cheaper in terms of rent as compared to Vancouver
Thats why I prefer live in Burnaby its close to Vancouver also everything is close to my house as well and then the best thing is I pay less for rent house haha.
@@AdamJBell You could've bought a nice bike with the insurance payments you made since you said you'd sell it. Get on it, my man! What do you even use a truck for working from home and living in Kits?
ha, non european immigrants are themselves not very friendly or welcoming to others or not adjusted enough to even be pleasant to be around, they are very rude/racist.
I AM FROM QUEBEC AND I REFUSE TO CALL MYSELF CANADIAN OR RECOGNIZE A CANADIAN PASSPORT! IT'S A HUMILIATION TO THE QUEBECOIS TO USE A CANADIAN PASSPORT.
Usually, it's not overt. There's definitely been a spike in anti-Asian hate crimes recently though. You might hear that Vancouverites have a passive, surface-level "politeness" which I'd say is true, but it depends on the neighbourhood and I'd say the same applies to racism. In my part of the city (the northeast) I'd say I've felt pretty safe and welcome. Of course, everyone's experience is different, so you might get an array of answers depending on who you ask. I grew up in a suburb about half an hour outside of Vancouver and our neighbours in the late 90s literally told my parents they're so sick of the influx of us Taiwanses immigrants. However, it got better over the years as they moved away (coincidentally, as the area became more multicultural).
It definitely exists, and these comments above most likely have a better answer than I do^ Just because I can't say from my own experience, but I have seen it.
06:35 BIG YES. Wherever you live, the bigger the city, the more people won't care each other. The smallest city, people will build a community. It's called human's survival mode
facts !
Hobbies are a great way to meet friends. I made most of my friends while playing in amateur rock bands.
When I lived there for 3 years I had the best time of my life. No car, living in North Van, studying Downtown, and having lots of friends and rain....love it!
Thanks for the video.
We call it the "Vancouver experiment" in our family. Two members tried it for a few years and both ended up moving back to a much less expensive part of Canada.
Good metaphor, I can relate
When I lived in Van I paid $1000 per month for a studio near cambie and broadway, until four years ago.
You should mention Evo etc if you haven't already. I never worry about parking and it's so reasonably priced.
it's crazy about scams, thanks for talking about it! So it's a reality, I got scam, several times, I never send money!!
living in vancouver you can pretty much take transit to any location, also never drive downtown its a bloody nightmare with all the one way roads etc
Since you released this video things have changed big time! Most places are 400-600 more than they were last year. I'm now finding bachelor basement suites for 1800-2000. 1bd for 2500.. This city has become unaffordable for the common person without rich parents.
And now another few hundred past that ! wild...
Amazing city!! I'm not planning to live right in van but near! Thanks for sharing! I hope to make friends too but cuz of the covid and all!
at 14 living here since i was born, this city isn't unfriendly. i meet so many random people while I'm out and about and have had some great interactions but also so bad ones to. i think its the fact that people don't look friendly, I've been told many times that i look mad at people when i just living life so i would chalk it up to that.

I've met tons of people this exact way as well 😄
thanks Adam! I'm moving to Vancouver this summer and your videos have been very helpful!!
If I breathe I have to pay for parking.....Vancouver is no joke when it comes to parking
Same for Edmonton and Calgary!!
Haha facts
@@AdamJBell Got a parking ticket today actually
Okay i don't wanna sound dumb but how am i supposed to find roomates. Like through online webs???
Lots of people use Facebook groups to connect with others 👌
And sometimes the people who list the apartments will be renting out the other bedroom they have available.
Thank you so much
I lived in Van in 2004 - had a room in 2 bedroom condo at Main Street Terminal - rented it for 300$ from my mate …. Crazy prices nowadays
Vancouver is a beautiful city!
Great content. Expenses about the car was an eye opener for me. Good job Adam.
That one was probably the biggest shock to me haha. Happy to help!
Car co-ops are an option if you're looking for something cheaper & you feel you need a car.
That's insane about the car insurance!

A truck worth $2000 on a perfect driving record of 4 years should not cost someone $350 a month. That's all I'm sayin 😄
