North Vancouver district was named one of the top places to live in Canada by MoneySense magazine this week, thanks to its low unemployment and low crime rate combined with a high household income and strong arts and sports community. Affluence also plays into the high ranking for the district, where the average net worth is $1.15 million, making it the second wealthiest community, behind West Vancouver, in Canada.
