[Langford] Westhills | 5,000 homes | U/C

Vandals who rearranged giant letters spelling Westhills to instead read “heist” on a slope in Langford could have created worse phrases

 

Langford’s Westhills, one of the largest subdivisions on the South Island, set a significant milestone on Monday — announcing the construction of its 1,000th home.

The 517-acre master-planned community in the hills between the south end of Langford Lake and Mount Wells Regional Park is now home to about 3,300 residents. To put that in perspective, about one in 15 residents of Langford now live within Westhills’ boundaries, and many more work in businesses, attend three new schools or play in the parks and trail systems in the new community. It is a key player in Capital Regional District’s growth strategy as the population booms.

Still owned by the Stewart family of Langford, the initial planning for Westhills dates back to 2006. The first homes were completed in 2009.
