I'm thinking of relocating to Abbotsford. I can't take living in Metro Vancouver anymore and am looking for a quieter place that still has city amenities.
Sure can. Abbotsford is very well known for Blueberry farms, as well as caddle and chicken. Accommodations for workers are pretty tight just like rentals are but if your meaning staying on site. Most major farms have buses that run from different parts of the city and neighbouring cities privately.
I wish , Currently you have 2 options drive to mission 15 mins and hop on west coast express Train and transfer to sky train in Vancouver, or drive into surrey king George and hop on sky train . Langley will have skytrain within the next decade which will shave 20 mins of driving , but not Abbotsford
Thanks for all about Abbotsford, my family and I are moving to East Abbotsford , next month July first week, 2023 , Moving from Edmonton, AB , Worries about my kids school , and transportation.
The cost of living in the province is high. But if you are breaking down certain areas or cities , the cost of food will be similar city to city here, gas is cheaper in Abbotsford as its outside the greater Vancouver area and there is no translink tax fixed in, cost of housing is 10-15% below areas like surrey and 20% below areas like Vancouver
Hey can you plss tell me the easiest way to go to vancouver from abbotsford as my college(langara college) is in vancouver downtown…i m comming to canada in april end…i hope you’ll reply Thankyou:)
Yes watch the video , write down the commuter line. That line heads straight down or hop off at 208th Langley transfer station if there is a faster transfer route. Check translink website
hello sir im planning to move to Abbotsford in the month of december 2023, can I know if we can find rental options or is it generally hard to find rental accommodation there?
Hey Anne vacancy is below 2% so it’s definitely tough, start looking soon. If you need help I don’t do rentals myself but there is someone at the office I can introduce you to who could help
I think you are likely seeing that in Every City. Humans are creatures of their own habbits. Personally, from living in 4 cities in lower mainland I feel the Abby Pd actually do a very good job enforcing vehicle safety compared to other areas. Thank you for the message and watch.
Hi Nico. Compared to where? When we moved from surrey to Abby 9 years ago we personally saw a drop in property crime. I park outside and haven’t had any issue with vehicles , house etc. I think fairly average compared to most urban areas. There is also areas with more of an issue and less like most cities I find. Have a good day give me a ring if you have a specific area question anytime.
We are moving there from South Africa in the next 4 months. I am trying to find out more about the city to set my mind at ease. Thank you for the reply and for the video.
That is great Nico. I would be happy to jump on a zoom and go over the 3 areas of Abby more in detail and see what you need for your family. Click the calendar and let’s set up a 10 minute call to discuss
Thanks for your message and checking out the video nils the home inspector. These days I mostly snowboard , take the kids up skiing. Takes 1 hour and 5 mins exactly to get to Mount Baker. Beautiful skiing and a great time. I hope you try it some time it’s great fun. Also the Mexican restaurant you drive by El Nopal is amazing. Often Drive over sumas border with friends just to go there. So good.
