Metro, train, bus, bike, on foot: what the guide says about Repentigny, and a clear verdict: without a car, yes.
Living in Repentigny without a car. Verdict: Without a car, yes. Repentigny station, on the exo Mascouche line, leads to Central Station; exo L'Assomption buses reach the Radisson terminus (green line) via Highway 40. Lawrence promenade, the L'Assomption riverbanks and the riverside bike path are the large spaces; the Diane-Dufresne art centre, the Alphonse-Desjardins theatre, the sports complex and the arenas complete the offer. Pro: The river, a cultural and stable city, 1970s houses to renovate or recent ones in Le Gardeur, and highway 40. Con: No commuter train in the centre of the city; highway 40 is saturated in the morning toward Montreal. Lawrence, a cultural and stable city, a 1970s house to renovate or a recent house in Le Gardeur, and Highway 40 toward eastern Montreal; for first-time buyers targeting a condo under $350,000.
Living in Repentigny without a car: what our neighbourhood guide says about the metro, the train, the bus, the bike lanes and what is done on foot, then a clear verdict, deduced from a rule we write out in full. No commute time is invented: the sentences are the guide's, and the figures are those published by the APCIQ.
The guide names a metro, a REM or a train that serves Repentigny: you can live here without a car if work is on the line, and the rest is done on foot, by bike or by bus.
"Without a car, yes" when the guide names a metro, a REM or a train serving the neighbourhood, without the guide saying it is lived by car. "With a single car" when the guide names only the bus, or a train that neighbourhood life is not enough to replace. "A car is a must" when no metro, REM or train serves the neighbourhood on foot and the guide says it is lived by car. The rule is the same for all 53 neighbourhoods; it does not replace your real commute on a Tuesday morning.
Lawrence, a cultural and stable city, a 1970s house to renovate or a recent house in Le Gardeur, and Highway 40 toward eastern Montreal; for first-time buyers targeting a condo under $350,000. Less so for those working in the west or in Laval: Repentigny looks east.
Without a car, yes. The guide names a metro, a REM or a train that serves Repentigny: you can live here without a car if work is on the line, and the rest is done on foot, by bike or by bus.
Repentigny station, on the exo Mascouche line, leads to Central Station; exo L'Assomption buses reach the Radisson terminus (green line) via Highway 40. Highway 40 leads to Montreal in a straight line and to Trois-Rivières the other way; Highway 640 reaches Terrebonne and the rest of the North Shore; the Le Gardeur bridge leads to Montréal-Est.
The real commute to work on a Tuesday morning, at rush hour, and the walking distance to the grocery store, the school and the daycare from the shortlisted street: two streets in the same neighbourhood are not equal. Repentigny looks east: working in the West Island or Laval means long trips.
