Just researching an old article here and noticed your comment. You forgot to look at suburbs. The city of Vancouver is a small portion of Greater Vancouver (notice on that Wikipedia page map, that the city of Vancouver's borders are straight lines that are not mountains nor the US border). A few minutes on Wikipedia will confirm population density in Burnaby is 2.5k, New West is 4.2k, Richmond is 1.5k, Delta is 0.6k, Coquitlam is 1.1k, Surrey is 1.6k (all lower than Vienna). I'll leave out the uninhabitable mountainous regions of West and North Vancouver and not go as far as Langley. Skytrain goes to all of the suburbs I provided numbers for, so they are not remote. Assuming you don't live here, otherwise you wouldn't have made this oversight.
