Downtown East by the numbers
Every Downtown East sale on the MLS® from November 9, 2025 to November 9, 2026, closed or firm and waiting to complete. That's 63 homes. The figures are medians, the middle sale, so one big outlier can't skew them.

Schools
Every Downtown East home sold in the last 12 months sits in the Crosstown (šxʷwəq̓ʷəθət) Elementary and Britannia Secondary catchments.
