^ there are two olympic villages. one in Vancouver and one in Whistler so there won't be any commuting necessary.
most of the alpine events will take place in Whistler while snowboaring and aerials (not sure what else) will take place at cypress mountain (20 minutes from downtown Van). everything else like hockey, skating, etc will take place in and around Vancouver.
tickets go on sale this October but not sure what the prices are yet.
