Moving to Laval: Montmorency Area Guide

Thinking about moving to Laval? The Montmorency area is one of the friendliest places to start, especially for newcomers who want a walkable, well-connected home base without leaving greater Montreal behind. Just north of the island and steps from the Montmorency metro, this part of Laval blends city convenience with room to breathe. Here is a newcomer’s guide to settling in.

Getting Around the Montmorency Area

One of the first things new residents appreciate is how easy it is to get around. The Montmorency metro is the northern terminus of the STM Orange Line, giving you a direct link to downtown Montreal and connections across the network. Buses fan out from the station into surrounding neighbourhoods, and the area is designed for walking, with shops and services clustered close together. Living near the station – as you would at U-Bahn Condos, about 250 metres away – means many trips can happen on foot or by metro rather than by car.

Amenities and Everyday Life

Settling into a new city is easier when the essentials are nearby. Around Montmorency you will find a strong mix of amenities that cover both daily needs and weekend plans:

• Espace Montmorency for dining, shopping and gathering spaces.
• Place Bell for concerts, hockey and public skating.
• Grocers, pharmacies and banks within an easy walk.
• The Universite de Montreal Laval campus for students and lifelong learners.
• Green space, including the 130,000 sq ft private residents’ park at U-Bahn Condos.

To get oriented before you arrive, spend a few minutes on our neighbourhood page, which paints a fuller picture of the surroundings.

Finding the Right Home to Settle In

New-construction condos make a smooth landing spot for newcomers, since much of the lifestyle is built in. U-Bahn Condos Phase 1 offers studios through two-bedroom homes with occupancy starting in November 2026, plus a gym, a coworking space and a 16th-floor rooftop terrace for meeting neighbours and unwinding. You can explore these shared spaces on our amenities page, then compare layouts on our interactive floor plans.

Every move is different, and questions about timing, layouts and availability are best answered in person. When you are ready to take the next step, book a visit to our sales office at 760 boul. Le Corbusier in Laval. We would be glad to help you feel at home in the Montmorency area.
