What is the difference between the City and the Township of Langley?

They are separate municipalities with their own councils, taxes and rules. The City is the compact centre, and the Township surrounds it, including Willoughby, Walnut Grove and Fort Langley.

How is the commute?

Highway 1 and the Golden Ears Bridge connect it to the region, and a SkyTrain extension from Surrey along Fraser Highway is being built.

Is Langley good for families?

Many families move here for newer homes, schools and space, especially in Willoughby and Walnut Grove.

What should I check on rural property?

Wells, septic, the Agricultural Land Reserve, zoning and what you can build. I will make sure nothing gets missed.
