Staying in Vancouver with my child for the weekend. I hear crime is bad there. What’s the equivalent of the Tenderloin district in Vancouver? #canada #vancouver #sanfrancisco
You gotta be kidding me
Why?
Vancouver is so dangerous can't believe you are going there. It makes SF look good.
Heard crime is bad there? Whoever told you that has not lived in Vancouver lmao
@op just because people feel crime is worse doesn't mean it's actually bad. Canadians were used to sleeping without locking their doors just 1-2 decades ago when my family was there. sure things are worse now but not terrible by any means compared to SF or crazy red states in the US.
Tenderloin is much safer
https://youtu.be/Qwcp2mcOH0Y?si=JLkD9vHafNIZ2oz8 vancouver is fucked. even downtown is sketch these days with that said, as a tourist, you’ll be fine. just stay in downtown, live in a nice hotel. etc the waterfront is gorgeous. stanley park is super nice. and of course there are the suburbs that you can go for different things: north van for hiking, richmond for food, etc just be careful on public transit as shady people are now everywhere. and stay away from east hastings / downtown east side. if things feel sketch. trust your instincts and turn back anyone saying vancouver is much better than tenderloin hasn’t been back in recent years. place is spiraling downwards very very quickly
Lolol transit is safe just don’t go down Hastings which is pretty safe just sad af, dt is alright, kits or Fairview are great to live and walk around with very little homeless. I would recommend staying dt for food I’ve never found a place in Richmond worth the trek. But walk the seawall and go to Stanley park those are prettymuch must does If not hear for a long time, if you like craft beer Olympic village is the best spot Walk to 3 or 4 have one at each. Vancouver is crazy expensive and there are homeless people but they are not dangerous. Source lived here 20y+
Holy Christ. Exactly what I needed to know. Thank you.
overall Vancouver is safer than SF. The only area that is sketchy is on hastings street between main st and abbot street. Its like the Tenderloin of Vancouver.
Vancouver is one of the best cities to live in.
AHAHAHAHAHAHA that’s a worse copium google is smoking than whatever they’re using on the gemini team time to short the shit out of the stock
There's only two parts of the city that are sketchy: 1. DTES. Even still it pales in comparison to tenderloin distinct. There's very few guns and the hobos keep to themselves and are relatively harmless. You'll know when you get there because the hobos are everywhere and there's at least a few police nearby. 2. Whalley in Surrey but that's more gang and targeted crime than anything Overall you should feel very safe here and can wander at night without issues. Just don't go down a sketchy alleyway 4 am at night on Hastings.

Lmao Vancouver is amazing compared to SF. Tenderloin equivalent is DTES, but everywhere else is great.
Heck you can walk through the dtes without getting robbed or stabbed, our hobos and drug addicts mostly keep to themselves.
