Dirt bike capital of BC hands down no other city compares. The freedom there is absolutely awesome with grasslands, mountains and lakes to explore. buy a dual purpose or a xc dirt bike is the best investment
Housing prices are definitely a plus in Kamloops & love the outdoors. Appreciate the suggestion to pay your parking ticket early for a lower fine. Thanks!
@@sllehmann Oh, no way! My husband is Canadian, from Prince George and he would love to move back. I love BC, but I don't know If I could handle the winters. I have only driven through Kamloops. I hope the housing market is in full swing there!
@@renosparkslivingwithlarene5283 Don't move to Prince George then! Winters are pretty rough up there! Kamloops is sunny by Canadian standards, but we always chuckle when they say it is a "semi desert". Not even close to Nevada. Winters can be quite gloomy. We also chuckle when they say it is windy here. That is one really good thing: almost zero wind compared to Nevada! Last year Kamloops recorded their highest wind gust of all time, and it was like 42 mph. When the wind died down to that in Carson City, it was time to go outside and have a picnic!
I am in B.C. too , Boulder City Nevada outside Vegas, there's no music scene in kamloops. . I can bring a huge music scene with me and Rick Barker Taylor Swifts manager. But the town would have to come up with some cash for a spectacular concert ballroom. It is quite beautiful there just boring. Thank you for the video 😎👍
I make the trip to visit the family every year. At Christmas too! So I come through valemount, blue river, Clearwater, and yes it can be sketchy at times! And they live in Aberdeen. So coming into civilization as I call it lol,, I really do enjoy the change from northern Alberta! I love how long a twoonie lasts at the car washes down there 👍
Hi Emma. I’m planning to move to Kamploops to study in Thomson Rivers University. I’m worried about a place to rent. I’m moving with my family, my husband my son and my pet. I would like to know if it’s possible to find a cheap place to live. Thank youuu
@@kamloopscountryliving6738 Slowly starting the approx 18-month emigration process so lots of hurdles to overcome but very encouraging to see the ranch lifestyle so established there (my wife's background!). Really good vid, did not know the sunshine fact, very important for me!
You forgot con #6 the outrageous amount of taxes and fees home owners have to pay, and history of local politicians doing what they please despite what citizens of the city have voted against ie water meters and concert halls.
We have gorgeous homes in Québec for $200 000 to $300 000. BC is outrageous. No way to live as a single occupant anywhere even in appartment. BC stands for "bring cash".......
Right now a small town called savona just outside Kamloops in British Columbia is being set up to have me killed. If you don't believe me, phone any of the gas stations and ask
Negatives transit not very good poor bus shelters. City can get very dusty and dirty. Lack of affordable rental housing. Lack of decent Performing Arts Centre.
North shore 100% CON! Hate that end of town.. always cops drugs and drama! (Avoid if you have family setting ) It’s the hasting of the interior / like VAN :( sadly because the land is beautiful If you want good people stay south to east

Hi informative video.
Are there many IT companies for international students to intern during our studies?
I believe there are some opportunities at BCLC for IT work
Thank you for the video
Very informative
What about crime stats? I currently live in Vancouver. Can’t be worse that that?
I heard it's pretty ok, not as bad as Prince George which is a mecca for drug transport & users

D P,
Are you not paying for gas ( gas and dash ) ?
What are we missing ? ...
BC as a whole has more then its share of beautiful people as well so I could never fit in.
Rattle snakes are a thing in Kamloops btw😂
Sure, but run-ins with them are EXTREMELY rare
They won't bother you as long as you leave them alone
@@kpax45
Sounds like my 4th ex-wife ...
How do I immigrant to Canada?
Fly fishing Mecca of North America? Uhhhh what about Montana

It’s the hasting of the interior / like VAN
:( sadly because the land is beautiful
If you want good people stay south to east
The things you forgot about:
Heavy racist community
Poor roads
Overwhelming self loathing arrogance
Heavy crime
The pulp mill stinks up the city
Is there a lot of beaver there?
Turd Ferguson not that I am aware of...
thanks for the video, information and motivation. You are beautiful.
Ksmloops is only good
jesus you livin in a matrix, so much more, mis reppn it
