The city of Mission, British Columbia is located in the heart of the Fraser Valley and named after St. Mary's Mission, founded in 1861. Unlike the other Fraser Valley municipalities Mission is mostly forested upland with only small floodplains lining the shore of the Fraser River.

Mission is served by a regional transit system that connects the District of Mission with the City of Abbotsford. The Valley Connector bus is operated by BC Transit, the City of Abbotsford and the District of Mission. Transportation infrastructure includes Abbotsford-Mission Highway 11, and the Lougheed Highway #7. Mission is also accessible through commuter rail, the West Coast Express, which runs five trains a day, five days a week, between Vancouver and Mission.
