Neighbourhood guide · City of Maple Ridge · the Town Centre and east
East Central Maple Ridge is an MLS® sub-area name. The City of Maple Ridge doesn’t publish a boundary for it. The closest official description is the Town Centre Area Plan. The City’s plan documents say the historic core was bounded by Ontario Street (224th Street), Dewdney Trunk Road, Hinch Road (225th Street) and Lougheed Highway, and that the plan area has since grown north to 124th Avenue, west to 221st Street and east to Burnette Street. The 2025 update expanded the boundary again to include River Bend. The Town Centre plan is about the downtown. I don’t have an official boundary for the residential streets around it, and the same plan is used in my West Central guide.

Schools
Maple Ridge is in School District 42 (SD42). Names, grades and addresses from the Province’s Maple Ridge school list and SD42. Checked against the official pages on October 17, 2026.
SD42 publishes no school list for the MLS sub-area, so these are the schools at addresses in the central and eastern parts of the city. Catchments are set by address, so confirm a specific address with School District 42 (SD42).
Parks and recreation
From City of Maple Ridge and Fraser Valley Regional Library pages. I did not find a full list of small neighbourhood parks for the residential streets, so ask me what is closest to a specific home.
