Where the cool kids live, work & play

If you're looking for a convenient location that also boasts some of Vancouver's best cultural scenes, look at the most desirable neighbourhoods in trendy East Vancouver, including Cedar Cottage, Commercial Drive, Hastings Sunrise, Main Street, and Mount Pleasant.

The historic architecture will appeal to the selfie-takers of the world and provide a rich cultural backdrop for one of Vancouver's most diverse communities.

Conveniently located between Burnaby and Vancouver's West Side neighbourhoods (everything West of Main Street), East Vancouver (aka East Van) is easily accessible by transit and Highway 1. There are also lots of walkable areas and access to bike lanes and trails.

The area has maintained the authentic charm lost in some major cities by retaining independent businesses and shops. Some spaces cater to every demographic, from hole-in-the-wall coffee shops to high-end boutiques.

East Vancouver is a foodie's paradise, with restaurants, cafes, and microbreweries aplenty. The diverse ethnic culture and history of the area have created a delicious tapestry of food from around the world. Home to many craft breweries, East Vancouver is known for its pubs, taprooms, and tasting rooms.

Not to be outdone by the rest of the West Coast, East Vancouver is home to many outdoor facilities and areas that allow year-round recreation. Residents and visitors enjoy the many parks and urban green spaces for fresh air and family-friendly fun.

There is a mixture of homes across this part of the city, from heritage and modern detached homes that account for most of the East Van area townhomes and apartments. An attractive area to investors, East Vancouver, is home to many renters in the city.

The demographics of East Vancouver neighbourhoods are especially diverse, with deeply rooted families that have lived there for generations to newcomers and everything in between.
