Living in Cedar offers a balance of country charm and coastal living. The area is known for its farmland, trails, and access to the ocean, while still being within a short drive of Nanaimo’s services. Families and retirees are drawn to Cedar for its quiet pace and strong community feel. Housing includes acreages, single family homes, and waterfront properties. With more than 30 years on Vancouver Island, I track actual market value and market movement so you can see what daily life and housing in Cedar are really like.
