The good reasons to live in Pierrefonds-Roxboro, and the reasons to hesitate, said before the visit rather than after, by a team that sells there.
Living in Pierrefonds-Roxboro, the pros and cons. Pros: A suburban house with land on the island, nature parks, the river, and the REM to downtown. The best-supplied house market on the island, schools in both languages and a bilingual neighbourhood. Cons: Lived by car: no walkable shopping street, boulevards and shopping centres. Flood zones along the Rivière des Prairies: check the street's flood level and insurability before offering. For families who want a suburban house with a lot, nature parks, a river and, since 2025, a direct REM downtown; for anglophones and newcomers looking for a bilingual neighbourhood. Less so for those who want urban life, a shopping street on foot or a condo in the heart of the action: Pierrefonds is lived by car and by the water.
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.
