The North Shore is very multi-ethnic, but it remains low-key about it, which is perhaps why it's less noticeable than in other parts of the city.

West Vancouver remains more "WASP" with numerous German and Scandinavian families, and some wealthy immigrant from HK and Taiwan, plus a smattering of of just about everything else, as is characteristic of all of the city.
