I went to college there for one year, way back in 1971/1972. I had fun while I was there. There is a pulp mill near there, the odor from it permeates the air. When I would leave there to go home for a weekend, all my clothes and everything I had with me, had the smell of the pulp mill on it. I don't know what it's like now, but after you live there for a while you'll get used to it. Also, you are near Nelson, which is quite a nice place. Also, you aren't far from Kootney Lake, and Ainsworth hot springs. I grew up in the area (in Creston, B.C.) - I spent a lot of time on Kootney lake.
