Neighbourhood guide

Living in Hamilton

Hamilton is a small, somewhat isolated Richmond community in the city's far east end, wedged between arms of the Fraser River next to New Westminster's Queensborough.

Location & boundaries

It lies at the eastern edge of Lulu Island, separated from the rest of Richmond by a stretch of Agricultural Land Reserve, with the Queensborough neighbourhood of New Westminster bordering it to the east. Highway 91 runs through the area.

History

The community grew from homes built under the Veterans' Land Act; school trustee Alexander Hamilton established its first school in 1936, a building now attached to the community centre.

Lifestyle

It has a self-contained, small-town feel, with residents within walking distance of a school, shops, parks and Fraser River trails.

Housing & property types

Historically single-family houses on medium lots, the area has diversified with newer condominiums, notably the Hamilton Village development.

Parks & recreation

Parks include McLean Park and Hamilton Highway Park, along with riverside trails on the Fraser.

Schools

The Richmond School District (SD38) serves the area, including Hamilton Elementary.

Getting around

Highway 91 and the Queensborough Bridge (Highway 91A) link it west to Richmond and east to New Westminster, Burnaby and Surrey; travel is car- and bus-based, with no SkyTrain.

Community facilities

The Hamilton Community Centre anchors local services.

Who it may suit

It may suit buyers wanting a quieter, riverside community with fast highway access to several cities.

Buying a home in Hamilton

BC's 2023 small-scale multi-unit housing legislation now allows three to four units on most single-family lots in larger municipalities, which is reshaping what detached lots are worth. Check the lot's current zoning with the municipality, and get a home inspection and a title search before removing subjects.

Budget for BC's property transfer tax on top of the price — it's charged on the purchase and first-time buyers and new builds may qualify for exemptions. See our BC & Alberta closing costs checklist.
