What the numbers mean
- Owners valued the median home at $1.08M in the 2021 census. Indexed to September 2026 prices with the Greater Vancouver MLS® Home Price Index (-7% since then), that is about $1.07M, close to the Vancouver suburbs median of $1.09M. It is an estimate: the index tracks the whole region, not this neighbourhood.
- 28% of households rent, below the 36% city-wide.
- 20% of residents are under 15, versus 14% city-wide. Expect busy schools, parks and playgrounds.
- Housing is a mix: 11% apartments, with the rest townhouses, duplexes and houses.

How it's changing
These municipalities don't publish building permits by neighbourhood, so we can't chart construction here yet.
Safety
Neighbourhood-level crime figures aren't available for Surrey. Policing there is by the RCMP or a municipal police department, and neither publishes open crime counts by neighbourhood. Check Statistics Canada's crime tables for municipality-wide trends, and the local police website for crime maps. Why this is missing.
