Sounds like a terrible place to live, not even Surrey is as bad.

it's not even as interesting as Surrey.

It's like a mall gave birth to subdivision gave birth to a mall gave birth to a subdivision. Even driving through it is depressing, so depressing i'd rather be in Victoria.

Fort Langley is ok though. If I were Fort Langley I'd secede from the rest of Langley and change my name

There's a great big hill blocking your view

Next time take the photo to the left a bit we might see 'round it.

The countryside in the fraser valley is very nice if you ignore the air quality in the summer. But the cities ... each one is incrementally more miserable than the last. And that's before you take into account the number of religious nut-jobs.

Haha...well it's all opinion I guess.

In terms of crime though there is no comparsion really. Western Canada (BC, Prairies) ranks a lot worse than ON and QC
