Guildford is one of Surrey's most densely populated areas, centred around the Guildford Town Centre mall at 104th Avenue and 152nd Street. The area has a strong condo and townhome market driven by families and young professionals who want urban convenience without Vancouver prices. Guildford Town Centre is one of the largest malls in BC, with 200+ stores and a food court. The residential areas around the mall mix older single-family homes with newer condo and townhome developments. Highway 1 runs along the north edge, giving you fast access to Vancouver (30-40 minutes) or the Fraser Valley. Fraser Heights, to the north of Highway 1, is a premium sub-area with larger homes and valley views.
