I live here, and I rate the skyline a 5, mainly because the buildings are boring as hell--no colour to them at all. Downtown is a dump....businesses are constantly leaving for the Sahali-Aberdeen area because they're better areas to shop. The city overall has terrible nightlife, few nightclubs/bars, and only one good movie theatre (which is located in the Aberdeen area, the southwest corner of the city), nothing else is all that appealing. However, I have been reading lots of good news about the city lately, and luckily I only have to live here for another year and a half :-).....visiting Kamloops is fine, but I wouldn't recommend it as a place to live.....at least, not until I become the world's greatest architect/businessman and transform it into a thriving metropolis :-) lol

Nothing special, but it's OK for a small city. 5,5/10

Good for its size, 7.5/10. Not to mention another nice city probably in BC!

Do you even call this a city? It's a big boring village. Almost as bad as Nanaimo (which IMHO is the ultimate shithole on earth)!
