Good to know

Wildfire
The BC Wildfire Service rates Vancouver's wildland urban interface as risk class 5 of 5 (lowest; 1 is the highest). One wildfire of 10 hectares or more burned within 5 km since 2006: 2016 (78 ha). Some insurers price for wildfire, and FireSmart BC has a free home assessment guide.
