Quick answer · Where is Eagle Ridge, Coquitlam?

Eagle Ridge is an established, well-treed family neighbourhood in north Coquitlam, BC — bordering Port Moody, sitting between Coquitlam Town Centre to the east and Port Moody to the west. It anchors the Eagle Ridge Elementary → Scott Creek Middle → Gleneagle Secondary school ladder, has its own Eagle Ridge Park (sports fields and a lacrosse box), and is the base of the Coquitlam Crunch trail. The housing is a genuine mix of detached homes, townhomes and condos; detached typically trades $1.4M–$1.9M and townhomes around $900K–$1.2M.

The drive to Coquitlam Central SkyTrain is roughly 8–12 minutes.

Market snapshot · June 2026

The numbers, before the story.

Eagle Ridge doesn't publish its own MLS® benchmark, so the most honest reference point is the citywide Coquitlam detached number — clearly labelled as such. What makes Eagle Ridge interesting isn't a single headline stat; it's the mix: detached homes, townhomes and condos in one established, well-treed neighbourhood, with its own schools, park and trailhead. Here's the current pulse, with every figure linking to its source.

What it actually is

What Eagle Ridge actually is.

Eagle Ridge is the kind of established, well-treed neighbourhood that a lot of Tri-Cities families quietly want — mature streets, its own park and schools, and a foot in two cities at once.

It's a genuine mix, not a single-product pocket. You'll find detached homes, townhomes and condos side by side, which means Eagle Ridge works for a wider range of budgets and life stages than a purely detached neighbourhood does — a first move-up buyer, a growing family, and a downsizer can all find something here. The streets are established and green, and the neighbourhood has its own centre of gravity: Eagle Ridge Park with sports fields and a lacrosse box, and the base of the Coquitlam Crunch right at the edge of the community.

Geographically it's a sweet spot. Because Eagle Ridge borders Port Moody, you get quick access both ways — Coquitlam Town Centre, the mall and the Evergreen Line are a short drive east, while Port Moody's Newport Village, Suterbrook, Rocky Point Park and the Brewers Row breweries are a short drive west. Add the neighbourhood's own school ladder — Eagle Ridge Elementary, Scott Creek Middle and Gleneagle Secondary — and you have a complete, family-ready package.

Who it's not for: buyers who only want brand-new construction (that's Burke Mountain), or buyers chasing a view-and-golf premium (Westwood Plateau). Eagle Ridge is established-family-neighbourhood, first and foremost.

By home type

What you can buy in Eagle Ridge.

Eagle Ridge is one of north Coquitlam's more mixed neighbourhoods — detached homes, townhomes and condos all trade here. That range is the point: it opens the door for buyers who couldn't stretch to a detached home in Westwood or Burke. Here's the breakdown with honest working bands and the right page to keep going. (Eagle Ridge has no separate published benchmark; these are working ranges, not an MLS® HPI.)

Schools + outdoors

What you're actually buying.

The two most-asked Eagle Ridge questions are about schools and green space — and here the neighbourhood is unusually complete. It has its own K–12 school ladder inside or right beside the community, plus its own park and the base of the Coquitlam Crunch. Here's the detail.

Schools (SD43)

Eagle Ridge is part of School District 43 (Coquitlam), with a tidy neighbourhood ladder: Eagle Ridge Elementary at K–5, Scott Creek Middle at 6–8, and Gleneagle Secondary at 9–12. The Scott Creek Community Garden sits between Scott Creek Middle and Eagle Ridge Elementary. Always verify a specific street with the SD43 locator.

Parks, trails & outdoors

Eagle Ridge has its own park with sports fields and a lacrosse box, and it's the base of the Coquitlam Crunch — the uphill stair-and-trail climb under the power lines. Mundy Park and Town Centre Park are a short drive.

Parks & outdoors

Green space around Eagle Ridge.

Eagle Ridge's biggest quiet advantage is that the outdoors starts inside the neighbourhood. Eagle Ridge Park and the Coquitlam Crunch trailhead are right here, and the wider network of Coquitlam and Port Moody parks is a short drive either way.

Sports, activities & programs

Where Eagle Ridge kids play.

Coquitlam's youth sports run through city-wide associations rather than by neighbourhood, so an Eagle Ridge family taps the same clubs the rest of Coquitlam does. The advantage of Eagle Ridge is its own fields: Eagle Ridge Park has sports fields and a lacrosse box right in the community, and you're a short drive from the Poirier Sport & Leisure Complex — the city's main arena and pool hub. Here's the honest, association-by-association map.

Shopping, dining & daily life

The everyday errands run.

Eagle Ridge has its own neighbourhood strip for the everyday run, and — because it borders Port Moody — two very different bigger destinations within a short drive: the mall to the east and walkable inlet-side villages to the west.

Runnel Drive & Coquitlam Centre

Runnel Drive is the neighbourhood's own strip; Coquitlam Centre — the region's major mall — is a short drive east.

Port Moody — a short drive west

Because Eagle Ridge borders Port Moody, the inlet city's best-loved spots are minutes away.

Honest fit

Who Eagle Ridge is — and isn't — for.

Every neighbourhood is a trade. Eagle Ridge's trade is established-family-completeness and two-city access over brand-new construction or a view premium. Here's the honest read on who wins with that trade and who should look elsewhere.

Where is Eagle Ridge in Coquitlam?

North Coquitlam, bordering Port Moody — between Coquitlam Town Centre to the east and Port Moody to the west. It anchors the Eagle Ridge Elementary → Scott Creek Middle → Gleneagle Secondary school ladder, has its own Eagle Ridge Park, and sits at the base of the Coquitlam Crunch trail. Drive to Coquitlam Central SkyTrain: 8–12 minutes.

How much do Eagle Ridge homes cost?

Eagle Ridge is a genuine mix of detached homes, townhomes and condos. Detached typically trades $1.4M–$1.9M, townhomes around $900K–$1.2M, with condos below that.

What schools serve Eagle Ridge?

What is there to do in Eagle Ridge?

Eagle Ridge Park has sports fields and a lacrosse box, and the neighbourhood is the base of the Coquitlam Crunch — the uphill stair-and-trail workout under the power lines. Runnel Drive is the neighbourhood shopping strip (Milestones, Tim Hortons, Sushitown, Creekside Coffee Factory and quick-serve spots). Coquitlam Centre mall is a short drive east, and Port Moody's Newport Village, Suterbrook, Rocky Point Park and the Brewers Row breweries are a short drive west.

Eagle Ridge vs Westwood Plateau — what's the difference?

Both are established, well-treed north/central Coquitlam neighbourhoods. Eagle Ridge borders Port Moody, mixes detached, townhome and condo stock, and has its own park and school ladder — making it more accessible across budgets. Westwood Plateau is the golf-course-and-view play with larger lots and a higher detached entry point. Eagle Ridge is the two-city-access, mixed-stock family neighbourhood; Westwood is the prestige play.

How far is Eagle Ridge from SkyTrain?

Drive to Coquitlam Central SkyTrain: 8–12 minutes. Lincoln Station: 10–14 minutes. Lafarge Lake-Douglas: 12–16 minutes. Inlet Centre Station in Port Moody is also a short drive west. Car-friendly for daily life, transit-accessible for commuting via the Evergreen Line.

Who's writing this

Why 47+ years in Coquitlam matters when you're buying or selling in Eagle Ridge.

I'm not an Eagle Ridge resident — and I won't pretend to be. What I am is a 47+ year Coquitlam local who has watched north Coquitlam's neighbourhoods trade through cycle after cycle. I know why Eagle Ridge prices the way it does relative to Westwood Plateau and Burke Mountain, how the Eagle Ridge → Scott Creek → Gleneagle school ladder shapes family demand, and how much the Port Moody border and the Crunch trailhead actually add to daily life here. That's the read a fly-in agent can't copy.
