The remaining 1.5 hectares (3.7 acres) of former Brae Island is owned by the Township of Langley.

In 2016, the reserve was home to approximately 94 people, and there are 22 private dwellings[8] and the Kwantlen Nation's Band Office.

Their former main village was at Qayqyat, or Kikait, opposite New Westminster on the Fraser's southeast bank there, at a location also known as Brownsville in today's Bridgeview neighbourhood of the City of Surrey.

The island was named after James McMillan of the HBC who founded Fort Langley.
