My wife and I are planning to move to Vancouver from San Jose, CA. I have been offered a job with CAD 100k base salary (plus benefits + 10% bonus + matching RRSP upto 5k etc).

I don't have much idea about Vancouver. We would like to live in a rented apartment (2 bedroom possibly). We have a car of our own which we'd like to keep. We eat out 1-2 times per week and like to travel/hike/camp a lot.

Could anybody give us any idea about the cost of living in Vancouver, and whether we'd be able to have a decent life with such income? Please feel free to point me to any old thread also, for more info.
