Frequently asked questions

What is the average assessed property value in Killarney?

The City of Vancouver's most recent residential property assessment shows an average assessed value of $1,531,763 for Killarney — in the mid-range band citywide. Property assessment reflects ownership costs, not rent; actual monthly rent varies by unit type, building, and availability.

How is transit in Killarney?

Killarney has 92 TransLink stops inside the neighbourhood polygon and 162 stops total within a 400m walkshed (5-minute walk of the boundary). Spread over the 11.386 km² that walkshed covers, that is 14.23 stops per km², for a transit sub-score of 84/100 against a saturation of 17 stops/km². The score uses the density rather than the raw count so that a large neighbourhood is not credited for stops nobody can walk to from any one address.

What is walkable from Killarney?

Within 1 km of the neighbourhood we count 29 parks, 16 schools, 2 recreation facilities, and 2 attractions — 49 walkable points of interest in total, or 2.35 per km² across the 20.879 km² that walkshed covers. That density gives an amenities sub-score of 52/100.

How walkable is Killarney?

Killarney has 515 road intersections across 6.313 km² — a density of 81.57 intersections per km². That drives a walkability sub-score of 37/100, benchmarked against a saturation of 220 intersections/km² (dense routable grid). Intersection density is a standard proxy for walkable block size.

How much green space does Killarney have?

About 11% of Killarney's land area is covered by parks (0.698 km² of park inside a 6.313 km² neighborhood, based on the City of Vancouver parks dataset). That produces a green space sub-score of 44/100, benchmarked against 25% coverage as saturation — neighborhoods above that are effectively park-first environments with residential woven through.

Is Killarney a good place to rent?

Rentvoy's composite rating for Killarney is 55/100, blending walkshed transit (25%), walkable amenities (25%), walkability from intersection density (20%), green space coverage (20%), and safety (10%, neutral placeholder pending VPD crime data). Individual priorities vary — use the rating breakdown to see which factors align with your needs.

Data transparency

Rentvoy's Killarney rating is deterministic — every figure on this page comes from the City of Vancouver Open Data Portal and is recomputed when the underlying data refreshes. No subjective weighting is applied on top of the published formula.

Why densities, not counts: transit and amenity sub-scores divide by the area their walkshed actually covers. Counting alone would rank a neighbourhood highly for being large — a 400 m walkshed around a 5 km² polygon sweeps up three times the bus stops of one around a 1.6 km² polygon, for exactly the same walk from any front door. The raw counts are still printed above, because they are the honest answer to "how many are there"; the score answers "how close together".

What's not in the score yet: The Vancouver Police Department publishes incident-level crime data, but it is geocoded to the block face and offered under a licence that requires per-use agreement rather than as an open feed we can re-read on every refresh, so our safety sub-score holds a neutral 50 placeholder. This is called out on every neighbourhood page so readers can factor it in. When VPD publishes an open JSON or CSV feed we can re-read on every refresh, we'll replace the placeholder and regenerate every page in a single ingest pass.

What property value means here: The average assessment figure is an ownership-cost proxy, not rent. It's included as context because expensive-to-own neighborhoods typically rent higher, but actual rent in Killarney varies widely by building, unit size, and availability. Live listings will always reflect the real number.
