Find out what people are saying about life in Villebois

“We really bought into the concept or the idea with Villebois – dense housing, future retail shops, the community pool, being able to walk to stores, not having to drive very far, and things like that.”

~ DJ

“Our neighborhood in Vancouver was all starter homes…the houses went in, then the yards went in, then the dogs went in, then the kids went in. And nobody got out and walked around and talked with each other. There’s just nothing to draw people out, and that’s one of the things that we really liked here.”

~ Richard

“There’s a really great mix as it is now, and I think everybody that doesn’t have children enjoys watching the children for the most part. Everybody’s pretty active in the community. You see all different sorts of people walking around all the time, enjoying just everything about it…We just recently moved here not too long ago and…it seems like everyone around here is kind of looking for the same thing: being involved and having relationships with everybody. And they seem to do just a lot of community things and we have get togethers and people are always just hanging out, looking to meet new friends.”

~ Katie

“I think one of the reasons people choose to come here is because they want to be a part of a community. And I think that if somebody wanted to be in a place where they got to know their neighbors and they had a chance to get to know people and to be active, this would be the place to come.”

~ Laurie

“I’ve never lived in a neighborhood. This is the first neighborhood I’ve ever lived in. And being a Realtor, I think the way this neighborhood is developed and put together is a lot different than all of the other neighborhoods, of course, that I’ve toured in the area in that it’s mixed-use all the way from apartments to very large, manor-type homes with all the amenities. And it doesn’t have a feel of a cookie cutter.”

~ Troy

“It definitely frees up your time to actually live life rather than cleaning up after it.”

~ James

“In our last house it seemed like all of our time was tied up in maintaining our backyard and doing all the maintenance around our house, and here we don’t have to do that. We can just enjoy, and come home and sit and have a glass of wine on the back patio and relax, and go for walks.”

~ Susy

“We learned about the master planned community many years ago and were inspired with the concept. Immediately I thought of opening a dental practice here in a brand new community, so we've been plotting and planning this for a long time... It's a wonderful neighborhood. It's a new business opportunity and it's a seven-minute walk from my house.”
