Vancouver Real Estate from a New Yorkers Prospective

General Angela Calla 20 May

Being a lifetime BC resident, I love everything #Vancouver has to offer. From a New Yorker’s perspective I found this article to be interesting!

Vancouver isn’t an obvious superstar. It’s not home to a major industry—as New York and London are to finance, or San Francisco to tech—and it doesn’t have the cultural cachet of Paris or Milan. Instead, Vancouver’s appeal consists of comfort and security, making it what Andy Yan calls a “hedge city.” “What hedge cities offer is social and political stability, and, in the case of Vancouver, it also offers long-term protection against climate change,” he said. “There are now rich people around the world who are looking for places where they can park some of their cash and feel safe about it.”
