Burnaby, BC

Burnaby, a leafy suburb that lies just east of Vancouver, is a popular choice for families relocating to the greater Metro Vancouver area. Cradled by the Burrard inlet and the Fraser River, Burnaby has the highest parkland to resident ratio in North America, which makes it ideal for those who prefer a quieter option than living downtown. While many choose to make the short commute to downtown Vancouver, Burnaby itself is a hub for commercial and government enterprises that provide booming employment opportunities, especially in the technology sector. This Burnaby city guide will take you through the best of the city, from its vibrant community to its diverse recreational opportunities.

Burnaby is home to a young affluent population and has been favoured by immigrants from China, South Korea, Philippines and the former Yugoslavia in recent years. The diverse and multicultural quality of the city means you’ll be spoiled for choice when it comes to food or cultural activities to attend. The city is well served by the SkyTrain rapid transit system that connects the city internally as well as to parts of Vancouver, New Westminster and Surrey. The network of cycling trails, cutting across the ridges, hills and valleys is another great way to get around.
