Queensborough, British Columbia

Queensborough is a city and lower-tier municipality in the Canadian province of British Columbia (BC), part of the North Fraser Regional Municipality in the ceremonial county of the Lower Mainland. In the 2021 census, Queensborough has a population of 173,237.

Queensborough is located at the eastern end of Lulu Island, most of which is occupied by the neighbouring municipality of Richmond, from which it is separated by some farmland, where the Fraser River splits into the North Arm and South Arm before emptying into the Strait of Georgia; this is the area where the residential population is located. The municipality also includes Annacis Island, a small island about the same size as the Queensborough portion of Lulu Island just south of Lulu Island's eastern tip; Annacis Island is used entirely for heavy industry and warehousing, and is traversed by the Alex Fraser Bridge which carries Highway 91 from New Westminster to Surrey and Delta.
