Kelowna Live Cam

The atual Census confirmed that British Columbia is the fastest growing province in Canada and that the Central Okangan is one of the fastest growing areas of the province. The current estimated population of Kelowna is over 132,000. Population growth is due to in-migration. Favorable living conditions, temperate climate, natural beauty and untold possibilities of future development have lured over 30,000 people to the Central Okanagan between 1991 and 1996 - a growth rate of over 22%. There are more seniors living in the Central Okanagan than the Canadian and British Columbia averages. This is mainly due to the attractiveness of the area as a retirement community. Yet, atual Census data reveals that only 10% of the people who moved to the area since 1986 were 65 or older. Clearly people are also coming here to work and raise families.
