1. Glenora5 H3 q- n. J4 \; n c. z
After five consecutive years on top, Strathcona has to surrender its crown to Glenora. The votes were close – we’re talking British Columbia elections close – but it was a win for Glenora nonetheless. (It’s also important to note that Russia did not interfere with the voting process.) Interestingly, Glenora’s win suggests a disparity in ideals and reality; the city is constantly promoting density, yet many of Glenora’s 3,513 residents vote against basement suites and infill housing. So while you won’t find diverse housing beyond large lots and detached character homes (1,155/1,569 homes in the area are detached, according to the 2016 municipal census), you will find the beautiful Alexander Circle with its iconic fountain, tree-lined streets, dream homes, an active community league and proximity to downtown, the river valley and High Street – and those are all things to love.

The opening of Ritchie Market has been attractive to residents and visitors alike; Acme Meats, Transcend Coffee and Velocity Cycle have brought their loyal followings to the space, and locals are eagerly enjoying the new Blind Enthusiasm brewery and Biera restaurant.
