Population

Since it is so mountainous in the Western Cordillera, the area is lightly populated. Its lightly populated due to the mountains running in a north-south direction, making it hard for vehicles and transportation to get across. Most people live in farming and mining towns located near the river valleys at the bottom of the mountains. There are some large cities such as Vancouver and Victoria, built on the flat land in coastal locations.
