Development in the lower mainland is never at a standstill – even through the economic downturn a few years ago, new development was still going strong in Vancouver and surrounding areas, particularly in aid of constructing infrastructure of the 2010 Olympic winter games.
This year, Vancouver ranked third in the Global Liveability Ranking and Report for August 2013, behind Melbourne, Australia and Vienna, Austria as the two most livable cities. Vancouver consistently ranks highly on the list, in part, because of a series of high-profile development projects, including a mass transit line, “Evergreen”. Other factors considered besides infrastructure included stability, healthcare, culture and environment, and education. Each city was given a score of 100, with Vancouver’s grade of 97.3 followed closely by Toronto’s 97.2 and Calgary’s 96.6.
