Appartements, Condos et Maisons à louer à Hastings-Sunrise Vancouver

It’s been labelled “one to watch” for several years, but now Hastings-Sunrise seems to really be coming into its own. That said, prices haven’t gone wild yet. This makes Hastings-Sunrise, located east of Nanaimo Street and north of Broadway, the ideal neighbourhood for young families. They can get in now and then have a place locked down in what will likely soon become the place to be. For now, it’s not especially walkable, and some crime still affects the neighbourhood.

Hastings-Sunrise used to be a neighbourhood people were concerned about moving to. These days, that’s all changed. Now Hastings-Sunrise is seen as family-friendly haven. Of course, be as careful as you would be in any major city, but don’t stress about the neighbourhood being extra risky just because it has “Hastings” in the name.
