10 reasons to live in Beloeil and Mont-Saint-Hilaire in 2026, taken from our neighbourhood guide

Living · Beloeil and Mont-Saint-Hilaire · September 14, 2026

Transit, shops, nature, schools, character and prices: ten concrete reasons to choose Beloeil and Mont-Saint-Hilaire, and where to read the reasons not to.

Ten reasons to live in Beloeil and Mont-Saint-Hilaire, taken from our neighbourhood guide and published figures: McMasterville and Otterburn Park, neighbouring villages, complete the sector. The valley is francophone, family-oriented, artistic, and draws those who want nature one train from downtown. In Mont-Saint-Hilaire, the streets at the foot of the mountain and the old village are the priciest, well above the median, with large houses under the trees; the neighbourhoods toward the 116 and the station are at the median. The good deals of 2026: Beloeil bungalows to renovate and condos near the 116. Every reason is a sentence already published in our Living in Beloeil and Mont-Saint-Hilaire guide, written by a team that sells there all year; the reasons not to live there (entry price, distance, school catchment, noise) are there too.

The 10 reasons, taken from our neighbourhood guide

1. 1. The character. McMasterville and Otterburn Park, neighbouring villages, complete the sector.
2. 2. The character. The valley is francophone, family-oriented, artistic, and draws those who want nature one train from downtown.
3. 3. The neighbourhoods. In Mont-Saint-Hilaire, the streets at the foot of the mountain and the old village are the priciest, well above the median, with large houses under the trees; the neighbourhoods toward the 116 and the station are at the median.
4. 4. The neighbourhoods. The good deals of 2026: Beloeil bungalows to renovate and condos near the 116.
5. 5. Getting around. The exo Mont-Saint-Hilaire line stops at McMasterville station (for Beloeil) and at Mont-Saint-Hilaire station, the terminus, with Central Station at the end; exo Vallée-du-Richelieu buses reach the Longueuil terminus.
6. 6. Getting around. Highway 20 crosses the sector toward Boucherville, the bridge-tunnel and Quebec City; Route 116 leads to Saint-Bruno and Longueuil, Route 133 runs along the Richelieu.
7. 7. Parks, leisure and shopping. Shops are in Old Beloeil, on Route 116 (Mail Montenach) and in the Mont-Saint-Hilaire village.
8. 8. Schools and services. Both towns fall under the Centre de services scolaire des Patriotes and the Riverside School Board, with high schools on site.
9. 9. The real estate market. The market belongs to the seller in every range, including above $970,000 (7.3 months of inventory), which is rare on the South Shore: Mont-Saint-Hilaire's large houses find buyers.
10. 10. Who Beloeil and Mont-Saint-Hilaire is for, and who it is not for. For families and couples who want nature, the mountain, the river, two old villages and a train downtown, in a calm, artistic valley; for those working in Saint-Hyacinthe or Longueuil via the 20.

Every reason is a sentence from our Living in Beloeil and Mont-Saint-Hilaire guide, written by a team that sells there all year, and the figures are those published by the APCIQ; nothing is added to make it look good. What the city does less well is also in the guide, in the "who it does not suit" section.

And the reasons not to live there

No city suits everyone: the entry price, the distance to work, the exact school catchment of the street, the noise of a highway or a rail line, parking. The neighbourhood guide says who Beloeil and Mont-Saint-Hilaire suits and who it does not; our method is to say it before the visit, not after.
