In recent years, Langford has become the commercial hub of the Western Communities and like surrounding areas offers affordable housing to prospective homebuyers compared to the rest of Greater Victoria.   Of the housing currently available, 64% is single family detached, 18% is duplexes and the remainder is other types of dwellings and buildings under construction.  Lately, a number of mega stores have sprung up in the area, such as Costco and the Great Canadian Superstore, making it a shopper's paradise.  Goldstream Park is a popular area for people to hike, visit the Nature House, and in the fall to see the salmon spawning.  Nearby is the All-Fun Water Slides and the Western Speedway.
