Etymology

Its name derives from a combination of the names of the cities (then district municipalities) of Burnaby and Coquitlam in order to name a post office for this area, which is just east of the boundary of the two cities and is not used by the City of Burnaby.

A fictionalized version of Burquitlam is seen in the 1982 film Big Meat Eater.

The Planning Department of the City of Coquitlam describes Burquitlam as being north of the golf course, east of North Road, and to the south of the boundary of the City of Port Moody.
