Both West Coast border cities at opposite ends of the country. Both "twin" cities with major West Coast cities: San Diego and Seattle. Which is better? Go!
Lol, I have a hard time deciding between San Diego/Seattle. I normally give San Diego the edge- I like it a bit more.
But Vancouver is no pushover, it's a really really pretty city. And I like the weather conditions more, and the scenery. I like the architecture too.
I gave Tijuana my vote because I know people will make this into a landslide Vancouver poll.
Why did you pick Tijuana?
TJ used to be nice before all the drug trafficking. You had your nice places along the coast like not to mention excellent Mexican food. It also used to have excellent night life. However a downside is it's terrible skyline.
Overall, Vancouver. Especially if we're talking about living. Vancouver has a better skyline, better scenery, and overall quality of life since we are talking about Canada vs. Mexico. I did enjoy visiting TJ when I lived in San Diego, especially for the food and nightlife, as SD Calif mentioned. Last time I was there was in 2005, before the drug cartel violence got worse.
I wish TJ could be a cool city and play nice with San Diego, like Vancouver is with Seattle.

For me, its easily Tijuana, Mexico all day every day and also night.
Seriously, why would anyone vote for Vancouver when Tijuana is on this poll!?
Is this poll a joke?!
I am enjoying my time here in Tijuana right now than I ever did in Vancover. I had the option between living in Vancover and Tijuana, and without hesitation I picked Tijuana.
Vancouver has the higher quality of life, nicer city skyline, more cultural offerings of many many different types, more nature scenery options nearby, and tons of other things BUT Tijuana has the cactus things! http://media-cdn.tripadvisor.com/med.../2e/cactus.jpg Those cactus things are so pointy, greenish brown, awe inspiring and interesting! Just that makes Tijuana worth it for me.
Tijuana's city name is just as nice as Vancouver.
And also Tijuana is the most Western city in Mexico!
Wise decision, whoever else also voted for Tijuana.
Someone couldnt even pay my to live in Vancouver, Canada one of my favorite cities in North America and the world over Tijuana, my favorite city by far in the Tijuana region of Mexico. Well its my favorite place in the Tijuana region of Mexico, except, for some other places in the Tijuana region of Mexico.

You sound very content with your choice in lifestyle Natural, I would go as far as saying you should make that your full time location. Possibly get your citizenship to Mexico.
Your post was oh so inspirational, makes me wonder what I'm truly missing out on.

Im always going to be content with my lifestyle picking Tijuana over Vancouver. I have no doubts. Im an illegal citizen in Mexico. I dont need citizenship here.
You are missing out on quite a bit! I think you should make it your full time location too, even if it may mean also being an illegal citizen here...
Hm, so the poll says that 2 people voted for Tijuana, but S.D. Calif, Omshahi, and me all voted for Tijauna. I sense a conspiracy. One of us is lying for voting for Tijuana and how they feel about it and I truly wonder who is.
I guess I shouldnt have gave it away that Im an illegal citizen in Mexico on city-data.
