Vancouver Neighbourhoods
By Dana Lynch, About.com Guide to Vancouver
Whether you're renting in Vancouver, looking for apartments in Vancouver or just want to explore the city, getting to know Vancouver's neighbourhoods is a must. Each Vancouver neighbourhood has its own unique feel, character and people.
West End
The West End is richly diverse, family-oriented, gay-friendly, close to Stanley Park and the heart of Vancouver's downtown core.

Yaletown
Downtown's Yaletown is one of Vancouver’s hottest neighbourhoods. It’s home to many of the city’s trendiest restaurants, bars and night spots, hip shopping boutiques, and celebrity haunts.
Kitsilano
Located southwest of Downtown and along the coast of English Bay, Kits--as it's known locally--is home to Kits Beach, Kits Pool, and the iconic museums in Vanier Park.
Fairview / South Granville
Just south of Downtown Vancouver, Fairview is home to Granville Island, theatres, restaurants and South Granville shopping.
