Question

i heard it rains a lot in vancouver. I was wondering if a lot of people still go out even though it rains? how hard is the rain? I'm planning to study college there and im very worried because I'll be renting my own place and i dont have a car so I'll be depending on public transportation during my whole stay. so plz help me out.

Answer 2

It rains a lot except in summer. It doesn't usually rain very hard but can drizzle all day. If you have a decent coat and footwear you can do all your usual outdoor activities without getting very wet. Most of the time, the rain is light enough that you can walk around in it without really noticing it.

Answer 3

Rain is a fact of life in Vancouver

Get yourself a big Umbrella, if you want to stay dry

Or a collapsible one if you are more worried about toting something around.

Vancouver has very good Public Transportation.

Answer 4

Umbrellas are really cheap here. You can get one at Superstore for only $4.00 so rain really is the least of your problems.

Hope you can find a nice affordable apartment. They go for $795 or more for a Bachelor to over $2000 for a 2-bedroom suite.

Also, the transportation system is quite crappy compared to that of other cities. Furthermore, it is also the most expensive in Canada.
