LatimerBritish Columbia

Latimer is a master-planned sub-neighbourhood of Willoughby in the Township of Langley, built out along the 200 Street corridor — roughly 76 Avenue to 86 Avenue between about 198 and 204 Street, west of Yorkson's 208 Street spine. It is part of the broader Willoughby Slope build-out that has been Langley's largest residential growth corridor over the past two decades. Predominantly post-2010 master-planned subdivision: newer detached on conventional 40–55 foot lots, three-storey townhouse complexes along the cross-streets, a meaningful share of small-lot detached + townhouse infill, and — at the heart of the Vesta Latimer Heights plan — the Towers at Latimer Heights, Langley's first concrete residential high-rises.

The Latimer sub-neighbourhood is governed by the Township of Langley Willoughby Community Plan + the Latimer Neighbourhood Plan. Inventory mix is heavily new-construction; pricing typically transacts at a premium to comparable older Willoughby blocks given the construction vintage + the school catchment + the proximity to the future Langley City Centre SkyTrain terminus.

For schools, most Latimer addresses feed R.E. Mountain Secondary (7633 202A Street) for grades 9–12 — an IB World School running Langley's only IB Diploma Programme (Grades 11–12), with a Pre-IB Honours preparation stream in Grades 9–10. Elementary feeders include Donna Gabriel Robins Elementary and Josette Dandurand Elementary (opened September 2025), feeding through Peter Ewart Middle. SD #35 redrew Willoughby Slope catchments for 2025–26, and a further redraw lands in September 2027 when the new Emery Dosdall Secondary opens — it will take most of eastern Willoughby while R.E. Mountain keeps the western side, so catchment lines here are actively in motion. SD #35 also operates French Immersion as an application stream.

By transit, Latimer is not directly served by existing SkyTrain. The Carvolth Exchange + Park & Ride (202 Street + Highway 1 interchange, 20255 86 Avenue) sits immediately north of the neighbourhood and is the regional bus hub — its 555 Port Mann Express reaches Lougheed Station in about 21 minutes. The future Surrey-Langley SkyTrain extension terminates at Langley City Centre Station (203 Street + Fraser Highway, in-service targeted late 2029 per Province), southwest of Latimer.

By car, downtown Vancouver is 65–90 minutes via Highway 1 + the bridges; Surrey City Centre is 20–30 minutes west via Highway 1 or Fraser Highway; Langley City Centre is a few minutes south via 200 Street or Fraser Highway. The Highway 1 + 200 Street interchange at the neighbourhood's north edge is the structural freeway connection. The Fraser Highway corridor to the south provides east-west access to Aldergrove + the Fraser Valley.

Bill 44 SSMUH applies — the Township of Langley adopted compliant zoning bylaws ahead of the June 30, 2024 provincial deadline. Most Latimer RF / R-zoned lots are multiplex-eligible (3-4 units per lot, up to 6 near frequent transit) subject to servicing capacity. The Bill 47 TOA tier radii (Tier 1 / Tier 2 / Tier 3) around the future 203 Street SkyTrain station will overlay additional density entitlements when the station opens.

Most Latimer addresses feed R.E. Mountain Secondary (7633 202A Street) for grades 9–12 — an IB World School running Langley's only IB Diploma Programme (Grades 11–12), with a Pre-IB Honours preparation stream in Grades 9–10. The IB Diploma is an application stream within SD #35 (Langley).

Elementary feeders include Donna Gabriel Robins Elementary and Josette Dandurand Elementary (opened September 2025), feeding through Peter Ewart Middle. Catchments here are in motion: SD #35 redrew Willoughby Slope boundaries for 2025–26, and a further redraw takes effect September 2027 when the new Emery Dosdall Secondary opens and absorbs much of eastern Willoughby. SD #35 also operates French Immersion as an application stream. If a particular school matters to your plans, the attendance area is set by address and easy to confirm.

Latimer is master-planned post-2010 residential, and its own walkable core is Latimer Village along the 200 Street high street — Blacksmith Bakery, Moku Hawaiian BBQ, Dolce Lounge, Layered Home & Living and more. A short hop east, Willoughby Town Centre at 80 Ave & 208 St adds the daily grocery run (Your Independent Grocer, Shoppers Drug Mart, BC Liquor, plus restaurants like An Indian Affair and BanChan Korean Bistro). Big-box (Costco off 200 St, T&T at Willowbrook Shopping Centre, 19705 Fraser Highway) is a short drive west. The Fraser Highway corridor to the south carries additional retail + service.

The Carvolth Exchange + Park & Ride at 202 Street + Highway 1 is the regional bus hub, immediately north of the neighbourhood. The combination of newer-build subdivision + the Latimer Heights village core + R.E. Mountain IB catchment + the future Langley City Centre SkyTrain terminus anchors Latimer's demand profile.

Not directly served by existing SkyTrain. Carvolth Exchange + Park & Ride at 202 Street + Highway 1 sits immediately north of the neighbourhood; its 555 Port Mann Express reaches Lougheed Station — and the Millennium Line — in about 21 minutes. The future Surrey-Langley SkyTrain extension terminates at Langley City Centre Station (203 Street + Fraser Highway, in-service targeted late 2029 per Province), southwest of Latimer.

By car, downtown Vancouver is 65–90 minutes via Highway 1 + the bridges; Surrey City Centre is 20–30 minutes west via Highway 1 or Fraser Highway; Langley City Centre is a few minutes south via 200 Street or Fraser Highway. Fraser Highway provides east-west access to Aldergrove + the Fraser Valley.
