This vibrant area of Vancouver stands out with its high employment rate and a unique urban lifestyle, characterized by a predominance of high-rise apartments and a youthful population. Homeownership is notably lower here, with a significant portion of the population living in rental high-rise apartments, contrasting sharply with the broader city where homeownership and variety in housing types are more common. The area is highly walkable and sees a much higher rate of pedestrian commuters than the city average, highlighting its dense, urban character and appeal to young professionals.
