Prophetone - It could very well be lovely, but I lived there when I was 20 on a grimey street and it was just shit all around. Boring & crime-ridden. But I'm sure there are nice parts.
- i live in the nice part. but it has its issues for sure. lived there since the 80's. go hyackssssprophetone

I've lived in the following places:
New West: Terrible.
Burnaby: A depressing suburb.
Point Grey: A bit remote if you don't have a car, but quiet and serene while not being too far from amenities.
West End: Very nice, relaxed, close to everything, lots of affordable apartments, close to the beaches.
Railtown: Loved it, great if you going for drinks on the reg and don't need to be too close to a supermarket.
Robson: My favourite, a walkable distance from everything so you barely have to even use transit.

Just avoid East Hastings Street (unless you have a crack addiction or a penchant for women with no teeth)
- Possibly the worst place on Earth. Drive through it, just for the spectacle.Andrew_D
- i drive through it almost every day.prophet
- I walked through it. Was amazing - like a Thriller video.Gordy22
- Same with my bro, he says it's like a second alarm clock on his drive to work.Andrew_D

There is nothing wrong with East Hastings
Its a long road that goes from downtown all the way to Burnaby.
Dont let these nay sayers scare you.
- it's considered the worst neighborhood in Canada, so do avoid it.callitropsis
- ...or the Heroin addict with the needle hangin' outta their arm.Andrew_D
- Sounds like it might be worth a drive thru, just to see how bad it isDuffer
- or maybe notDuffer
- Don't avoid the street. Just avoid the alleys. You'll be fine.Melanie

chances are you will be laughing at how tame Hastings is. but to us Canadians it's as sketchy as it gets.
- Yah of course, if you can actually work through it, its not that bad.JSK

– callitropsis1/3Are you serious? I find parts of Toronto much worse.
- Which parts? Cause I call bullshit.Andrew_D
- really? it's always referred to as the worst in Canada... when was the last time you were in Van?callitropsis
- It is, don't let JSK fool you. Mind, the other 95% of the city is really nice.Andrew_D
