Anjou, Quebec

Anjou is a borough (arrondissement) of the Canadian city of Montreal. Prior to its 2002 merger it was an independent city. Although it is no longer an independent city, it is still commonly known as known as Ville d'Anjou. Anjou has a predominantly Francophone population.

Geography
The borough is located in the eastern end of the island of Montreal. The borough largely retained its former municipality logo, although the borough's logo is used on fleet vehicles without Montreal's logo. On fleet vehicles, the text reads "Ville de Montréal, arrondissement Anjou."

The borough is bordered to the north and east by Rivière-des-Prairies–Pointe-aux-Trembles, to the south by Mercier—Hochelaga-Maisonneuve and Montréal-Est, to the west by Saint-Léonard, and at the northwestern corner by Montréal-Nord.

It has an area of 13.7 km2 and a population of nearly 42,796.

Among other attractions, it contains the large Les Galeries d'Anjou shopping mall which is one of the few mega malls located within the city of Montreal. The Blue line extension of the Montreal Metro which is expected to be completed in 2029 will have one new station located in Anjou with two entrances located on both sides of Autoroute 25.
