Overview

Mount Pleasant sits at the dense, walkable heart of Vancouver — the kind of neighbourhood where groceries, transit, and a coffee shop are all within a five-minute walk. The Rentvoy composite lands at 75/100 — 152 TransLink stops sit within a five-minute walk of its edges, 20.65 per km², and 83 parks, schools, and rec / attraction points fall inside a 1 km walkshed. The average residential assessment in Mount Pleasant is about $1,250,300 — mid-range for Vancouver — which is useful context for rent expectations even though actual rent depends on unit type and building. Safety is held at a neutral 50 placeholder until VPD crime statistics become machine-readable; every other figure on this page is live open data.

Frequently asked questions

What is the average assessed property value in Mount Pleasant?

The City of Vancouver's most recent residential property assessment shows an average assessed value of $1,250,300 for Mount Pleasant — 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 Mount Pleasant?

Mount Pleasant has 68 TransLink stops inside the neighbourhood polygon and 152 stops total within a 400m walkshed (5-minute walk of the boundary). Spread over the 7.362 km² that walkshed covers, that is 20.65 stops per km², for a transit sub-score of 100/100 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 Mount Pleasant?

Within 1 km of the neighbourhood we count 52 parks, 17 schools, 8 recreation facilities, and 6 attractions — 83 walkable points of interest in total, or 5.46 per km² across the 15.204 km² that walkshed covers. That density gives an amenities sub-score of 100/100.

How walkable is Mount Pleasant?

Mount Pleasant has 606 road intersections across 3.391 km² — a density of 178.73 intersections per km². That drives a walkability sub-score of 81/100, 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 Mount Pleasant have?

About 4% of Mount Pleasant's land area is covered by parks (0.15 km² of park inside a 3.391 km² neighborhood, based on the City of Vancouver parks dataset). That produces a green space sub-score of 18/100, benchmarked against 25% coverage as saturation — neighborhoods above that are effectively park-first environments with residential woven through.

Is Mount Pleasant a good place to rent?

Rentvoy's composite rating for Mount Pleasant is 75/100, 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 Mount Pleasant 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 Mount Pleasant varies widely by building, unit size, and availability. Live listings will always reflect the real number.
