Living in Brossard: the pros and cons in 2026, by a team that sells there

Living · Brossard · October 11, 2026

The good reasons to live in Brossard, and the reasons to hesitate, said before the visit rather than after, by a team that sells there.

Living in Brossard, the pros and cons. Pros: The REM on foot, Quartier DIX30, highways 10, 30 and 15, and the widest house choice on the South Shore. New condos near the REM and family neighbourhoods by letter, with schools in both languages. Cons: A recent city without an old centre: few mature trees, boulevards and shopping centres rather than a main street. The Champlain Bridge and highway 10 stay saturated at rush hour for those who do not take the REM. For those who want choice and transit: 320 homes listed in Q2, a new condo within walking distance of the REM, concentrated services. Less so for those seeking century-old streets and mature trees: Brossard is a recent city, and its five-year price increase (+26 %) is the lowest on the South Shore precisely because new supply is abundant.

The pros: the good reasons to live in Brossard

The cons: what you have to accept

These are the points buyers report to us after visiting, not flaws on principle: each one weighs differently depending on whether you work downtown or remotely, own one car or two, have children or not. For a specific street, three things get checked on site before offering: the school catchment, the flood zone and the noise at rush hour.

Who it is for, and who it is not for

For those who want choice and transit: 320 homes listed in Q2, a new condo within walking distance of the REM, concentrated services. Less so for those seeking century-old streets and mature trees: Brossard is a recent city, and its five-year price increase (+26 %) is the lowest on the South Shore precisely because new supply is abundant.
