Here's the VPD payscale:
Probationary Constable – $77,983
4th Class Constable (after one year) – $83,793
3rd Class Constable (after two years) – $89,376
2nd Class Constable (after three years) – $100,542
1st Class Constable (after four years) – $111,709
For comparison, the median household income in Vancouver is $72,585. Not sure it's an income issue.
Assuming they had 300K to put down, a five year fixed rate mortgage and todays rates would have a monthly payment of $5800 Per month. That's $69,000 after tax income going to mortgage payments in one of the highest taxed jursidictions in Canada. So yes, it is definitely an income issue why people who work in Vancouver don't live there if they want to own their own home.
