After asking what the rudest part of Metro Vancouver was, we decided to find out what locals thought the rudest neighbourhood in the city is.
Six neighbourhoods were pitted against each other, and there was an "other" option in case none of the nominees fit for voters.
As it turns out, two neighbourhoods took more than 50 per cent of the vote.
With around 27 per cent of the vote, Downtown Vancouver was named the rudest part of Vancouver, according to locals.
Yaletown was a close second though, with around 25 per cent of the vote. In both cases out-of-towners and community votes agreed.
Three other neighbourhoods, and the "other option, all finished close to each other with around 10 or 11 per cent of the vote.
Third place goes to Kitsilano, which just beat out "other" as both finished with just above 11 per cent. Kerrisdale cracked the 10 per cent mark to take fifth, and the West End finished sixth.
For those of you who live, work, or spend time in Mount Pleasant, there's some good news. It seems few people consider it a rude neighbourhood, as it garnered under five per cent of the vote.
