Housing Diversity

Large single-family homes represent most of Tsawwassen’s current housing stock. For those who want an alternative to that one form of housing, there is little choice.

A range of housing choices is key to creating thriving, diverse communities. Housing at Southlands is designed in one compact area to provide more diversity of housing choice in Tsawwassen, especially targeting the needs of existing local residents who might want to downsize to a smaller home but remain in Tsawwassen.

The approximate 950 homes planned for the Southlands will include a range of housing types from cottages to townhouses to apartment-style homes. The housing planned for Southlands significantly enhances housing choice for those who wish to remain in Tsawwassen but don’t want to maintain a large single-family home. With an emphasis on affordability, attracting young families is also a priority.
