There’s been a tonne of activity in the resort-towns (and outdoor meccas) north of West Vancouver.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There’s a vastly increased number of developments, new properties and proposals coming out of Squamish and Whistler. Part of this push to develop these two distinct cities was access to the outdoors. World-class climbing in Squamish (yes, there’s also mountain biking!) and world-class skiing, snowboarding and mountain biking in Whistler. It’s hard to fight the draw to these communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But the two cities haven’t grown and developed at the same rate. Whistler, already a very developed resort-town, has been much faster at developing multi-family housing units. Now, there are “zoned” areas where property owners may or may not rent out facilities. Plus, the sale of the ski resort to a large U.S. buyer  \u2014 and the subsequent marketing move away from domestic patronage to international visitors \u2014 means Whistler is now seeing loads of dollars, sales and restrictions. It’s not quite the same in Squamish, yet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Perhaps this is why Whistler dominated this year’s top spots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Below is the full list that ranks each community based on the highest overall scores in value, momentum and economic desirability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
