Housing
Finding Your Home
Port Alberni offers excellent return on investment for buying or building a home, and the average price is under $500,000. Housing inventory is diverse, pricing is affordable, nature is always close by, and the majority of residents "commute" less than 15 minutes for work.
Port Alberni was once two separate towns located next door to each other and separated by Rogers Creek. This unique history is why the city has two historic downtowns, two waterfronts, and twice as much to offer.
