Welcome to Mission: A Scenic Retreat in Fraser Valley

Situated on the northern banks of the Fraser River, Mission offers picturesque landscapes with rolling hills, lakes, and mountains to the north. Connected by the Lougheed Highway, it leads west to Maple Ridge and east down the valley to Hope. While the historic downtown catches the eye, Mission has more to explore.

The town is evolving with diverse housing options. From high-rise towers, townhomes, and condos around downtown to older homes north of downtown, it caters to various preferences.

Despite new developments and a growing population, the city maintains its laid-back vibe. It provides numerous outdoor opportunities for residents seeking tranquility away from crowded urban areas.

Wren + Raven: Gateway to Mission’s Future

Wren + Raven, Mission’s newest neighborhood, is under construction and dubbed the ‘Gateway to Mission.’ With 130 condos and commercial units, it’s a significant opportunity for first-time buyers. Heading west to Maple Ridge, the Silverdale Development Area is a massive master-planned community set to increase Mission’s population by 50 to 60 percent over the next 15 to 20 years.

Exciting developments, including thousands of new homes such as single-family homes, townhomes, and apartments, are on the horizon, making Mission a community to watch.

Heritage Park: A Place of Reflection

Heritage Park, Mission’s largest park, has a complex history as the former site of St Mary’s residential school. It serves as a reminder of Indigenous history and hosts events like Indigenous Day to reconcile the past and celebrate Indigenous culture. Protected land with limited housing options due to its significance, Heritage Park remains a vital space for the community.

Downtown Mission: Nostalgia with a Modern Twist

Mission’s downtown has undergone revitalization, attracting new businesses and adding high-rise buildings for renters. This densification is bringing in younger residents looking for a blend of city amenities and natural surroundings. North of downtown, older homes are being renovated, contributing to the town’s evolving landscape.
