Living in Burquitlam
Burquitlam — the name blends Burnaby and Coquitlam — is one of Metro Vancouver's fastest-changing neighbourhoods. Since the Evergreen Extension opened Burquitlam Station, towers have risen around the North Road and Clarke Road junction, bringing new shops, the Burquitlam YMCA, and thousands of new residents to an area that spent decades as a quiet postwar suburb.
That older suburb is still here, and it's the neighbourhood's other story: 1960s and 70s homes on generous lots spread across the slopes east of the station, many held by long-time owners. As Coquitlam's transit-oriented plans unfold, these properties carry land value beyond the houses themselves — a dynamic that matters to both buyers and sellers here.
Buyers get a rare spread of options: new condos steps from SkyTrain at prices below Burnaby equivalents one station away, townhomes in newer complexes, or detached homes with suites and future potential. Vancouver Golf Club's fairways and Como Lake's trails frame the area, and SFU sits just up Burnaby Mountain.
