Parksville, Vancouver Island, British Columbia! The Best Place in Canada to Retire?

Parksville’s central island location makes it an ideal base for exploring both the natural beauty of the coast and the inland forests and mountains. Known for its wide sandy beaches, especially at low tide, Parksville is a favourite getaway for families, outdoor lovers, and anyone looking to unwind by the ocean and gaze at the mountains. Parksville offers retirees a very high quality of life and many are choosing to leave the mainland and make Parksville their retirement home-the city is growing by 10% every year. Sotheby's has ranked Parksville the #2 retirment destination in Canada (second to Victoria) but we think it may be # 1 for Canadians who prefer a slower pace.
