Location of the Sunset neighbourhood, within Vancouver.


Sunset is one of the most ethnically diverse neighbourhoods in south-east Vancouver, British Columbia.



Geography


Sunset lies between E 41st Avenue, Ontario St, Knight St and the Fraser River.


Rich in ethnic diversity, it is home to the Punjabi Market.


Like most of south-east Vancouver, the area used to be predominantly working class but rising house prices elsewhere have made the area increasingly popular with young professionals and families who can no longer afford houses in areas such as the west side.[citation needed]
