I think the living environment is better in Burnaby. Nicer view.
But since I do prefer Chinese food most of the time I still will choose Richmond. I don't like shopping in Metrotown either.
Btw...why not Vancouver?? I will still pick Vancouver not burnaby or richmond if there's the choice in the poll....
I lived in DT Van, Van West and Richmond.
I picked Richmond for now.
It also depends on your life style.
For me, I love Richmond because my life style is all based in Richmond. If I want good food or fine dining, I can always drive to DT.
Living: I live in Richmond West and there are less Chinese compare to Richmond Central, which is "better". I love that I can go to the Dyke easily. For all sport and related activities, everywhere is nearby.
City: Traffic is super easy in Richmond (People who is living in Richmond all know how to avoid No.3 and take the less traffic route)
Asian: If I need something Asian, way to go in Richmond. Food courts, supermarkets, chinese style malls, you name it.
House Value: Richmond is not cheap at all...Check the Gold Pages
Richmond: Close to airport and all highways, US etc
Government: We have a super good city of Richmond to manage our city. I paid less property tax compare to the time I am living in Vancouver.
I don't know... I guess food is a big factor.
I feel that I am kind of forced to have more Chinese food since I live in Richmond....

I personally prefer to eat non-chinese at least non-cantonese when I eat out unless I am sick.
There is no good casual sandwich places or small Italian resturants in Richmond unless I go all the way down to Steveston. I think driving to Cambie or Main is closer vs Steveston.
