Most expensive city in Canada - Victoria BC

HI Alex. Thank you for this content. I will be moving into Victoria very soon and I would like to ask a few questions. You touched on the cost of placing your car on a Ferry. Please clarify: would this mean that I can have my car transported from Victoria to Vancouver on a Ferry? And if so, can I buy a car in Vancouver, drive it to the Ferry station, and bring it into Victoria via the Ferry? Secondly, I am very grateful for the comprehensive video you did on the Victoria BC Neighbourhood Guide. If one were to get a place in either Esquimalt or Victoria worth 850k (which I see your website already lists), with a down payment of 250k, what is the least salary one has to earn need to get approval for a mortgage loan (for the remaining 600k)? Also, can one reach you via your office phone? Thank you.

Thank you so much for this video, it seems very professionally done and it's exactly what I've been looking for. Although I'm Scottish and have lived in the UK my whole life I was actually born in Ontario and have longed to move to Canada for most of my adult life but there was always something getting the way, just by sheer chance my partner has the opportunity of employment anywhere in BC and we've narrowed the search to Victoria or the greater Victoria area, not an easy decision to make when you're planning to move to a country you don't know and you have the wellbeing of children to think about. I've subscribed to your channel and look forward to more Victoria Videos.

its a shit hole

Don’t forget the dying downtown core with the sad Bay and withering variety of shops.

I moved to Victoria 10 months ago and all I can ever think about is the cons. I'm from Alberta and I used to love driving everywhere and doing everything whenever I wanted but Victoria is very restrictive in that sense. I would not recommend moving here to anyone. It's basically an old person town and the downtown is not vibrant as portrayed

Great presentation

The production quality of this video is incredible. Great Job Guys!

Thanks for the informative video! Why isn't there rideshare there, I want to ask?

Well done. Perhaps BC should incorporate your vlogs into their programs for visitors etc. I live in North Saanich but I love Sidney the best.

I was expecting Cadboro Bay to be number one given your history, but I can’t argue with Cook Street Village in top spot. It’s the neighborhood where all newly-divorced dads move.

I'm afraid I am going to have to disagree with you with respect to the comment you made disassociating the unhoused to the crime in Victoria. Property crime, thefts from business, assaults, all sorts of disorder is committed by the unhoused. How do you think someone that does not work support a drug addiction anywhere from $200 to $1400 a day? They steal, all the things they have are stolen. There were 7 stabbings within 5 weeks, two of those people died and it wasn't over bubble gum.

You say “ in Victoria” but then you site Sidney etc. I think you should say “southern Vancouver Island” because Victoria is the city on the south of Van. Island, A CITY! Sidney is another city and Metchosin is an area west if Victoria but not in Victoria.

Fernwood is the best area to live in Victoria.

If your homeless please come to Victoria it’s the best place in Canada to be.

I miss my old neighbourhood:( Someday..........Great video, Alex

What a great video. A Redditor led me here; this should be a Must Watch for every out-of-towner who asks about moving here. (And you made me see how lucky i am to live here, in James Bay). 🥰

Great video. Thinking of making the move from Vancouver for a more reasonable housing price with similar weather.

8:30 as a european im like bring it on hahaha

Please add more video on Victoria . Lot of people are fed form Vancouver and wants to move to Victoria .

I've never seen a city that just shuts down when it snows. Even the transit system shuts down. Most bizarre thing.

what is the cost?

The grounds of RRU and Colwood waterfront are pretty nice.

Let's see if this video will persuade the riff raff not to move to Victoria.

Great video as its very informative and comprehensive! Thank you!

I'm looking for small piece of land in Vancouver BC

So informative! Thank you! Well done!

Nice home in a nice neighborhood! I am moving to BC next month and not planning to rent more than 6 months because I would like go for a purchase as soon as possible. I planned the purchase near White Rock area initially because we love to be beside ocean and nature, and neighborhoods with good schools but since I started watching your videos, my perspective is changing lol. So I was looking for a minimum 3 bed rentals (furnished as I don't want to rent more than a year) near Victoria until I buy but seems like such rentals are very limited in there from the various listing sites I visited although there are plenty in the mainland. Let me know if you can help me in getting such furnished rentals initially from around June. Thanks a lot.

i found victoria really boring. the downtown was so lack luster considering how much money that city prbly has. the only thing it has going for it is the weather. I like mainland BC so much better than the island

Love how specific you are! Grew up and lived in Vancouver, my family is moving to the island so I will follow soon. Thank you for helping me learn the different areas. Currently looking at detached in Quadra Hillside area

Me interesa de un casa de afito Ana Maria

Viv West Park also hosts the Memorial Day Drag baseball game.

The China/Mystic Beach region is transporting.

Gowland Todd is incredibly underrated.

Thetis Lake is within spitting distance of my front door; it's a gem.

I thought you grew up in Esquimalt :P

Short term things are fucked, long term things are fucked

nice shots mate

Greetings from Sidney. We're full, don't move here. 😅

Greater Victoria cost too much, crappy job selection, everyone is cliquey and anti social. The place is great for you if you like to sit at home every day, know nobody, live poor, and watch your career die. Corporate types are sent into Victoria exile because they want to get rid of them at any other office.

2:34... you guys need to get rid of this...

YOu need to get rid of Trudeau,..

I actually just walked around Uplands this very afternoon. It's lovely.
