About the area
The Brossard station is situated in the charming city of Brossard, just a mere 19-minute REM ride to Montreal’s bustling Gare Centrale station in the heart of the city. Brossard caters to a diverse demographic, making it an ideal place for singles and families.

Notably, it’s a melting pot of cultures, encompassing Asian, Hispanic, and North African backgrounds.
While Brossard predominantly comprises single-family homes, the recent surge in condo construction is noteworthy. This surge can be attributed to the presence of the bustling DIX30, a sprawling shopping complex that truly offers everything one could desire, and the introduction of the new REM station.
The Brossard REM station is conveniently accessible via multiple modes of transportation, including bicycles, pedestrians on foot, private vehicles (with available parking facilities), public transit, and paratransit services.

About the area
The Du Quartier REM station, near vibrant Quartier Dix 30 in Brossard, is just three stations and 16 minutes away from Montreal’s Gare Centrale, with a convenient 38-minute ride to YUL-Aéroport-Montréal-Trudeau station, which is currently under development.

Most of the houses are individually owned, not rented.
The Du Quartier REM station offers multiple transportation options for commuters.
