Settling in Lorraine
Is Lorraine right for you?
Lorraine suits families and outdoor enthusiasts who want a quiet setting with little commercial activity. Homes from the 1960s and 1970s deserve a careful inspection (foundation, drainage, insulation, roof). Near Highway 640, visit at different times of day to gauge the noise. Since the local commercial offering is limited, plan your trips to Rosemère or Blainville for shopping.
