City of Langley

City of Langley sits at the crossroads of suburban comfort and urban convenience, where families discover they can actually have their cake and eat it too. With a median household income of $108,000 and nearly half the homes being single-detached houses, this community attracts people who’ve figured out that quality of life doesn’t require sacrificing accessibility to Metro Vancouver’s opportunities.

The numbers tell a compelling story: 13.1% population growth since 2016 suggests people aren’t just visiting—they’re staying. The upcoming SkyTrain extension will transform commuting dynamics, though many residents already enjoy the luxury of short commutes, with nearly a quarter traveling less than 15 minutes to work.

What sets Langley apart is its climate evolution. The community has warmed by a full plant hardiness zone over recent decades, now sitting comfortably in Zone 8b. This means longer growing seasons, milder winters, and the ability to cultivate plants that would struggle elsewhere in BC. Local gardeners and agricultural operations benefit from this extended growing window, creating a unique microclimate advantage within the Lower Mainland.

The housing mix reflects thoughtful development: beyond the 47.6% single-detached homes, you’ll find a healthy blend of row houses (21.6%) and duplexes (14.3%), creating options for different life stages and budgets. Construction leads the local economy at 12.2% of employment, followed by retail and healthcare—a diversified base that provides stability.
