Ninety per cent of the area is farmland, the balance being residential property. This community also has one of the lowest residential property taxes in the Lower mainland. The West Coast Express station gives ready access to Vancouver, saving a horrendous commute. Pitt Meadows also has its own Municipal Hall Regional Airport.
