Mission
Ideally situated, Mission is just a 15-minute drive from the US border, and approximately 70 kilometres east of the City of Vancouver. Mission is surrounded by the incredible beauty of mountainous vistas and natural forest settings. The climate is warm in the summer and mild and wet in the winter. Flowers bloom most of the year, as the area is naturally hospitable to a wide variety of plant life and vegetation. Topographically, Mission enjoys an immense variation of hillsides and gullies which maintain natural
neighbourhood enclosures, spectacular views, and a sense of permanence. It is the site B.C.’s first rail link to the United States, one of the earliest Hydroelectric dams and
Fraser River bridges, and is home to the oldest known First Nations’ archaeological site
in British Columbia.
The municipality has an open and welcoming attitude to its citizens and businesses, new residents, investors, and visitors alike. Come and see for yourself why Mission is
“The Jewel in the Valley”.
