Take a stroll along the old heritage site, and learn some local history of Steveston. The Gulf of Georgia Cannery National Historic Site, and the London Heritage Farm.

Steveston has a long history on the West Coast here, open the link for some pertinent information related to this area.
There's an open-air fish market, where you can choose what you buy directly off the boats. On a sunny day, this can be a pleasant place to spend a few hours. There are a few drinking establishments here to refresh your taste buds.
During the summer hours, live music on the docks, and featured Community events happen. Right up until the last month of the year.
There are a lot of new Apartments and Condo's being built down here, so the increase in population is sure to be noticed, but from what I've seen, it's being done with some good taste.
Want to live in a somewhat sleepy community?
Move to Steveston.
