Hmm..... too general to pick a definite answer. Depends on your age, needs, style of living (single house, townhouse, apartment), and the possible groups of your neighbors too.

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.

Highrise is good to avoid spiders vs. ground level.
Having water view is nice but could risk for tsunami.
Single house is good only if you have time to manage everything yourself.
Surrey is a little far away to central vancouver but it's a lot cheaper.
Houses around metrotown is more expensive cuz it's very convenient to almost everything.

There is no paradise on earth. People have to set their priority and get the most things they want but to sacrifice something. ;b

   Sea view, must have some lights, bridges, ships etc. If not, boring.

Very true! Unless you like extreme privacy, so when you look out nobody is looking at you! LOL

The fact is, population only grows but not reduces, no matter by new born generations or immigrants. People choose certain areas but not some others have their own reasons. But in general, either you can escape from high dense cities and crowded shopping/eating areas, but then you have to stuck on bridges and travel farther away to get home in less busy areas. Good that there are different cities for us to live in and for investment.

One thing I don't like about Richmond is that the road is not grid pattern. Once go inside it's like a maze.
