1,000 people are moving to Surrey every month; here's why

If you’ve been thinking about relocating to a fast-paced and rapidly-evolving city, we might just have the solution for you.

Surrey is the second-largest city by population in British Columbia (after Vancouver) and offers beautiful urban forests, parks, and trails (it is often called the City of Parks due to its abundance of greenery). With the convenience of everything you need in close proximity to the core of Surrey, it’s easy to see the appeal of living there.

With approximately 1,000 new inhabitants each month calling it home, it’s safe to say that Surrey’s popularity is fast increasing with no signs of slowing down. Let’s take a look at the reasons why:

Canada’s 3rd fastest growing city

Surrey is one of the fastest growing cities in Canada — the third fastest in Canada, to be exact. It is expected to become BC’s largest city by 2041, with nearly half a million people already in Surrey (and the number is only increasing every year).

With the increase in population comes more development. And as the city grows, businesses will come, bringing more jobs and more investment. Ultimately, the result is a more dynamic place to live, work, and play.

Close proximity

Big things are happening in Central Surrey. Some of the province’s top employers and post-secondary institutions are located in Surrey’s downtown core, as well as healthcare and architectural innovation, recreation, and culture.

With so much available just steps from you, you may even find that your own two feet are the only mode of transportation you need. (But TransLink is always nearby, with more lines into the city planned for coming years.)

Picture all your favourite cafes, grocery stores, community centres, parks, and more, just walking distance from you. It’s for that reason that people are increasingly choosing to move to Surrey.

The great outdoors

If you’re a park person (and who isn’t in BC?), this is the city for you. Whether you’re going for a leisurely hike, a daily run, or even just a picnic on the weekend with your friends, you can find something to your liking at one of Surrey’s parks. Head out to Redwood Park, Tynehead Park, or Green Urban Timbers Forest for your fill of green scenery.

Surrey also has plenty of parks that are great for kids and young families, as well as a number of dog-friendly parks.
