A municipality located in Greater Victoria BC. Oak Bay has made it their mission to deny housing to as many people as possible through the use of exclusionary zoning, and bylaws. Despite containing half of UVIC and being located a mere 3km from Downtown Victoria, Oak Bay has spent 15 years talking about legalizing basement suites, and has managed to enter population decline in a region with a housing crisis. Unwilling to grow its tax base, Oak Bay is facing debt to maintain basic infrastructure. Be prepared for entitled rich, mildly racist, WASPy, NIMBY views from local residents. Willows Beach is nice though.
Why does Oak Bay even exist?
