With all due respect to those here advocating living in the "burbs" to save a few bucks or whatever, you are delusional if you can't see hundreds of superior lifestyle reasons to live right downtown in the West End or Kits.
If you have come all this way to the west coast, why not actually be near the ocean instead of some burb that looks and feels like any other burb of any other city in Canada.
It is not really that much more to live right across the street from the ocean/Stanley Park/seawall/sandy beach/awesome street scenes with tons of bars and restaurants/entertainment... than 40 miles from away so why not just live where all the action and culture is. Its less crowded than the suburbs with the traffic jams and strip malls and car culture and gas stations on every major intersection and big malls and all the other rancid experiences of living in suburbs. I bet there are more leafy green streets with less crime and friendlier people than any suburb you care to point out too.
