“Nearly two-thirds of our housing stock is single-family dwellings, with apartment options mostly limited to aging buildings constructed in the 1960s and 1970s. The result is that there are not enough options for seniors to downsize, adult children to stay close to their families, or young families to move into West Vancouver”

Better Housing
More than 60% of the North Shore is currently single-family homes. This is an expensive housing form that excludes most people from living here. Encouraging more housing options will help create a better balance. Living near where you work is a great way to reduce traffic.
