With a population of approximately 195,000, Burnaby has evolved from a predominantly suburban community to an urban centre in its own right, serving as a regional focus for a variety of business, recreation and education activities. Burnaby offers many natural features including two large freshwater lakes, naturally-forested mountain parkland, an ocean beach and a multitude of neighbourhood parks and open space, many with fish bearing rivers and streams. Major sports fields, golf courses, bicycle and walking trails, urban plazas and botanical gardens are also an integral part of Burnaby's physical landscape. Burnaby's quality education facilities include Simon Fraser University and the British Columbia Institute of Technology (BCIT), attracting students from across Canada and around the world and complementing the business and industrial sectors that are vital to the City's economic base. Burnaby is centrally located and easily accessed by car, public transit (including SkyTrain) and air via the Vancouver International Airport, located approximately 20 minutes from the city centre. www.city.burnaby.bc.ca | View all Burnaby listings on the map
