Pemberton sits in one of BC’s most spectacular valleys, where the Lillooet River winds through farmland backed by towering peaks. This isn’t your typical mountain town — it’s where serious outdoor enthusiasts go when Whistler feels too crowded, and where young families discover they can actually afford mountain living.

The numbers tell a compelling story. With 32% population growth since 2016 and a median age of just 36.4 years, Pemberton attracts people who want adventure in their backyard without sacrificing career prospects. The median household income of $100,000 reflects a community that’s found the sweet spot between mountain lifestyle and economic opportunity.

What makes Pemberton fascinating is its housing mix. Nearly 60% of homes are duplexes and row houses — unusual for a mountain community where single-family homes typically dominate. This density creates affordability that’s rare in BC’s recreational corridors, explaining why young professionals and growing families keep arriving.

The local economy runs on more than just tourism dreams. While accommodation and food services employ 16.5% of residents, construction claims 15.4% — a sign of sustained growth rather than seasonal fluctuation. The proximity to Whistler provides economic stability without the resort town price tags.

Pemberton’s agricultural heritage remains strong thanks to that Zone 7b climate — one of the warmest growing zones in mountain BC. The valley’s potato farms and the weekly farmer’s market aren’t just quaint attractions; they’re part of an economic foundation that keeps the community grounded when tourism ebbs and flows.

Currently, Tekamar’s maximum LTV in Pemberton is 0% as we focus our lending in other BC communities outside the Lower Mainland. However, we recognize Pemberton’s appeal for both lifestyle buyers and investors drawn to its unique combination of mountain recreation, agricultural heritage, and growing population of young professionals.
