The municipality of Hampstead is almost completely
composed of single family residences, except for
the apartment buildings on Chemin Côte-St-Luc, and
the duplexes and triplexes along MacDonald,
Cleve, Dufferin, Heath, Holtham, Harrow and
Aldred Roads.
Hampstead was one of the areas which voted to
de-merge from the city of Montréal after January 1, 2006.
