Community Overview

Living in Coquitlam

Coquitlam is the largest of the Tri-Cities, with a population of roughly 150,000. It stretches from the Fraser River up to the slopes of Burke Mountain, giving it one of the most varied housing landscapes in Metro Vancouver — high-rise condos in City Centre, family townhomes in Burke Mountain, and established detached neighbourhoods like Westwood Plateau and Como Lake.

The opening of the Evergreen Line in 2016 transformed Coquitlam Centre into a true urban hub, and Burke Mountain continues to be one of the most active master-planned new home areas in the region.

It's a top choice for families looking for a balance of urban convenience, top schools, and immediate access to nature.
