Sidney was once considered a retirement community, and is undergoing quite the change with brand new condos and townhouses popping up as the population grows. There are established neighbourhoods with schools in walking distance for families, townhouses and condos for retirees, working professionals and families looking for a lock and go lifestyle. With the airport and ferries minutes away, this community is  perfect for those who work there or are frequent travelers, or work on the mainland and commute daily. With a bustling walkable downtown full of coffees shop, bistros, restaurants and more, Sidney has amenities right at your fingertips and a quick drive down the Pat Bay Highway into Victoria for those who work in the city or need the big box shops.
