Your welcomed to Sunset when you cross E 41st Avenue east of Ontario St. Ontario Street is Sunsets east boundary. Ontario St also separates Vancouver East from Vancouver West.

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