Please select your preferred Industry

The City of Vernon has a population of 35,944 (2006), while its metropolitan region, Greater Vernon, has a population of 55,418 (2006). With this population, Vernon is the largest city in the North Okanagan Regional District. A resident of Vernon is called a "Vernonite".

In 2005, on an episode of The Early Show, Vernon was ranked as one of the top six most desirable communities to retire to in North America by Consumer Reports.

Each winter, Vernon plays host to the Vernon Winter Carnival. First held in 1961, it is now Western Canada's largest, and North America's second largest Winter Carnival.

Also, in summer, there is the Sunshine festival, held on the main street.

Vernon is also home to a state of the art performing arts centre, The Vernon and District Performing Arts Centre.

Vernon is known for its lakes and beaches in the summer, and skiing and hockey in the winter. It is therefore a year-round tourist destination and weekend get-away for people from Vancouver and Calgary. During the summer Vernon hosts a large SloPitch tournament (Funtastic).

The Vernon area is home to several golf courses. Among these is the prestigious Predator Ridge Golf Resort, a 27-hole golf resort and community.

Apparently Justin Vernon seeked to simply create a 'tapestry of sound' when writing Bon Iver, that's why the the lyrics are so abstract.
