Northwest Edmonton is still one of the city's best family-friendly areas. The area is culturally varied and welcoming to all types of families. It provides the ideal combination of residential, retail, and light business real estate to make daily life easier.
Excellent transit and opportunities
Northwest Edmonton is well-served by the Northgate Transit Centre, which provides public transportation to all regions of the city. Northwest Edmonton is also a popular choice for military families, because it is only just few minutes' drive from CFB Edmonton, one of Canada's largest military posts (Canadian Forces Base Edmonton). The former army base known as Griesbach, which is currently being transformed into one of Edmonton's most sought after new neighborhoods, has a rich military history.
Amenities and activities for everyone
The Castle Downs YMCA and Recreation Centre is a popular destination in North Edmonton. With outdoor and indoor recreational areas such as hockey arenas, sports fields, a pool, and a spray/skate park, this center serves as the community hub of Northwest Edmonton. We also appreciate Beaumaris Lake for its lengthy and calm walking pathways.
