Since Covid, I’ve spent far more time in Parksville than in Calgary.

It’s terrific for year round beach walks, cycling, hiking, and running.

On a Globe and Mail survey of places to live in Canada, Parksville was 32nd “most livable” out of 438.

Factors: economy, housing, demographics, health care, safety, education, community, amenities, transportation and climate.

My parents, brother Rob and his wife live here. It’s a small retirement town.

The numbers aren’t quite right, but this real estate guy generally gives a good overview of town.
