As other posters have said, Metro Vancouver is a pretty multi-cultural region with lots of inter-racial families. I live in a middle class area and the joke among parents is that the kids in school tend to be brown, that is from inter-racial families. As for cultural awareness, it's pretty high. My children's school counted some 47 languages spoken at the student's homes. It's common to see sushi and samosas on the school hot hot menu.
As for neighbourhood, do you have any criteria? Any particular reason you are looking at West Point Grey? Teaching or studying at UBC?
