Burnaby's three rental cores
Metrotown (Burnaby South) is the largest and densest — Canada Line and Expo Line both serve it, and Metropolis at Metrotown is the largest mall in BC. Condo supply is deep, rents run somewhat below Vancouver West.
Brentwood / Lougheed (Burnaby North) has been the decade of the tower — Amazing Brentwood, Lougheed Heights, and a dozen other supertall rental projects. Newer construction, newer finishes, and a fast-moving market.
South Slope, Edmonds, Highgate fill the middle — mostly low-rise and walk-ups, older stock, materially cheaper than Metrotown. Good choices for commuters who just need to reach the SkyTrain.
