## Mapped Amenity Landscape

The neighbourhood profile identifies seven specific amenity points attributed to Yarrow. This count includes one school, five parks, and one dog off-leash area. The data source is the OpenStreetMap Overpass API, which provides geographic coordinates for these locations. Each point represents a distinct facility within the defined boundary.

Yarrow Elementary serves as the sole mapped educational institution in this dataset. The five parks include named locations such as Yarrow Pioneer Park and Wilson Park. One park entry lacks a specific name in the provided records. These mapped points establish the physical presence of recreational and educational infrastructure in the area. Sources:

## City market context

From the Chilliwack market article, 22 September 2026:

Chilliwack's housing market now carries 8.5 months of inventory, far above the 5.3-month seasonal average, creating clear buyer leverage. The composite benchmark price fell 5.2% year-over-year while new listings hit a decade low for August, signaling a market where sellers face prolonged listing periods and price concessions. Chilliwack's market balance has shifted decisively toward buyers, with months of inventory reaching 8.5 in August 2026, up from 7.1 a year earlier and well above the 5.3-month seasonal norm. This surplus coincides with a 5.2% year-over-year decline in the composite benchmark price and a 21.4% drop in new listings, indicating that reduced seller participation has not offset the accumulation of unsold homes.
