A shitty part of the Valley that is trying to change it's image to hip and trendy, when all it's done is added "North" to an area in which they aspire to be. The idea was probably taken from seeing how upscale West Hollywood had become.

Get the North Hollywood mug.A person who resides in or hails from the USA or Canada. This term is only used by Canadians, who use it in order to feel like Canada and the US are part of the same thing while most US citizens tend to forget about Canada. Canadians use this term with total disregard for the fact that the continent of North America also includes the nations of Mexico, Belize, Nicaraugua, Costa Rica, Panama, etc. But the people who live in those countries aren't, you know, white.

North Vancouver is a mix of industrial, residential and commercial area's. In general poorer people live closer to the water, where the industry and railroads are present. Lonsdale Avenue is the main drag where there's many poor quality restauraunts and small businesses. On east 15th street Dr. Pollock circumcises the local babies, while a few blocks away the well-heeled Christan youth study the bible at STA. Owning a 3 series BMW with an 'N' is the greatest symbol of status in North Vancouver. Unfortunately the vast majority of such people are foreigners who don't give a shit about our country. At the local gym's there's dozen's of Iran's who form their own isolated cliques. On the street's there's a variety of local's and poorer outsourced workers. Parent's usually prefer rearing their young here as opposed to Surrey or Richmond. North Vancouver children in the upper echelons of Grouse Mountain rarely encounter domestic violence or hard drugs, as is the norms across the Iron Workers bridge. North Vancouverite's generally have inner longings of living in the British Properties, but are unable to afford the switch. In summary, North Vancouver is a community about lousy transit, large and exclusive Asian and Iranian clique's and wimpy children who live a sheltered existence. It is highly advised for newcomer's to live as far away from the water as possible. The waterfront is known for aboriginal drunkeness, suburban single parent raised youth, whom ride the buses and create a micky-mouse lifestyle of rap and punk music, are unable to afford private trasnportation due to smoking and marijuana usage, they create a hostile environment outside large establishments. The lack of bus service and commercial buildings makes moving up the hill common sense for educated people. Expect to have you're vehicle vandalized if you park in suspect neighborhoods. It should also be noted that there are many foreign drivers with Toyota's with tissueboxes in the rear. These drivers are easily distracted and offten fail to see pedestrians or other cars. North Vancouver is devoid of any clubs, which is part of the problematic environment for many of the ghetto youth's. Living in North Vancouver is a mistake unless you move right up the mountain. Otherwise, West Vancouver and Lionsbay are preferable to individuals who prefer to live with the creme de la creme.
North Vancouver kid's have no balls compared to Whalley kids. In reality most of them only have stuffy noses and soiled underpants.

Get the North Carolina mug.North Yarmouth Academy, or NYA, is a college preparatory school for grades 5-12 in Yarmouth, Maine (NOT the middle of nowhere). The academics are very strong and so are most of the sports teams, especially hockey.
The students are not generally attractive, but there are a good amount of hot guys and girls. The teachers are pretty nice, but not all of them.

Get the North Yarmouth Academy mug.North Carolina: A weird state where the cities have absolutely no side walks, no bike paths, everyone is in their cars. A state were people actually have accents and like shopping in malls, where most of the teenagers have no taste in clothes or they cannot afford to shop at Anthropologie and instead huddle up in the Abercrombie and Fitch, and where the schools have inside cafeterias and everything is inside
Californian: I swear to god there are no side-walks in Charlotte, and just because its November, people look at me weird for wearing a skirt, from american appeal, which they do not have here! I hate North Carolina. Oh and none of the kids here smoke weed, the only thing their smokin' is cigarrettes, god their so stupid.
