THE VAUDREUIL-SOULANGES REGION

Made up of 23 municipalities, the Regional County Municipality of Vaudreuil-Soulanges has been growing for more than 15 years. Each of the region’s municipalities has a rising population and new businesses being established in their territory.

A Fast-Growing Region

Strategic placement, easy access to Montreal, and an exceptional quality of life continues to draw a young demographic searching for homes in subdivisions or in upscale neighbourhoods.

In terms of education, anglophone and francophone populations are served, respectively, by the Commission scolaire des Trois-Lacs and Lester B. Pearson School Board. The Collège de Valleyfield and l’Université du Québec à Trois-Rivières are also present in the region. In 2016, it was announced that construction would begin on a hospital in the next few years.
