Schools, parks, commutes, space and price: what Fabreville offers a family, and what it has to accept, said before the visit.
Living in Fabreville with a family. The sector falls under the Centre de services scolaire de Laval and the Sir Wilfrid Laurier School Board. The Rivière des Mille Îles banks and the Bois de l'Équerre, at the Sainte-Rose limit, are the large spaces; neighbourhood parks, the arena and the pool complete the offer. Fabreville has no station of its own: Sainte-Rose station (exo Saint-Jérôme line) is at the eastern limit, and STL buses reach the Montmorency terminus. Pro: The cheapest house with land in Laval, near highways 13 and 440 and the Rivière des Mille Îles. Con: Functional, with no old village or shopping street: shops are on the boulevards and you get around by car. For first-time buyers and families who want a house with a lot in Laval under $600,000, near the highways and the river; for investors who renovate bungalows. Less so for those who want a train on foot, an old village or a recent house: Fabreville is functional, family-oriented and fast, and you must offer quickly.

The school catchment of a specific address cannot be guessed: it is checked with the school service centre before offering, and subsidized daycare spots are requested early, everywhere in the region.
For a family, the commute is measured at rush hour, with the detour by the daycare or the school: do it once on a Tuesday morning before deciding.
