Agreed.
Sometime we have no choice regarding nature disaster.
If people have choices, why are they still live in SF, Tokyo or those high risk area?
Remember Vancouver area is also in high risk....but why so many Chinese picked this land to live? Everyone should move to a place where there is no disaster...haha.

I understand people would have those concern but nature disaster is totally out of human control. Richmond house price is not any apparently lower than other cities, which reflects the reality isn't like what some people fear.

Why not North Van?
It is because:

2) House prices are crazy
3) Less Asian places
4) BORING, only for retired people....LOL

Yeah right.
This is why most Chinese will not pick North Vancouver as this is kind of an isolated land.
Chinese culture like 熱鬧....

too bad, I work in Richmond.... @@
