Neighbourhood Guide / West Side
Kitsilano
High street: West 4th Avenue and West Broadway. A short read on the character of the area, what is nearby, and what the numbers look like.
Character
Beach city with a working high street. Kitsilano runs from the water at Kits Beach up the slope to Broadway, mixing character houses, new duplexes and low rise apartments. The pull here is the walk: coffee on 4th, a swim at the pool, and a short trip downtown by bus or bike.

Amenities in Kitsilano
Each section opens a live search or an official source rather than a list of business names, so what you see is current.

Places to eat cluster along West 4th Avenue and West Broadway. Open a live map search to see what is trading today, with hours and reviews.
Dog parks
Off leash areas are set by the Vancouver Board of Parks and Recreation and the rules change by season and time of day. Check the park finder before you commit to a routine.
Beaches and parks
This area has water access, so beach and seawall time is part of daily life. The Park Board pages list facilities, washrooms and seasonal lifeguards.
Gyms and yoga
Studios and gyms tend to sit on the high street or just off it, alongside the community centre's own fitness rooms.
Community places
Community centres, libraries and neighbourhood houses are where an area shows its real character. The City lists programmes, pools and rinks by centre.
Schools
Catchments move, and a listing sheet is not proof of the school assigned to an address. Confirm the catchment before you write an offer.
