By the numbers
Charleswood at a glance
Population and dwelling counts: City of Calgary civic census, 2019 — the most recent civic census published. Current properties: the City’s property assessment roll. That is the up-to-date count, but it counts titles rather than households — each condominium unit is its own title, while a rental apartment building is a single title however many suites it holds. In newer, mostly-owned communities the two numbers track closely; in older communities with rental blocks the roll sits below the census count for that reason. Sector: City of Calgary community district boundaries.
The community
About Charleswood
Fun facts: every residential street starts with “C,” and many are Canadian place names — Canmore, Capilano, Chicoutimi, Chilcotin, Cochrane, Coleman. The Triwood Community Association has served Charleswood, Collingwood and Foothills Estates since 1961, and public skating at its arena is free. And Senator Patrick Burns School honours the rancher and meat-packer who was one of the “Big Four” backers of the first Calgary Stampede in 1912.
Charleswood is an established northwest community from 1959 (the typical home dates to 1961), east of Crowchild Trail and the University of Calgary, with Nose Hill Park to the north and Confederation Park to the southeast. It’s mostly bungalows and split-levels on tree-lined streets, with some newer infill. Neighbours are Brentwood, Collingwood, Capitol Hill and Banff Trail.
The Triwood Community Association runs an arena, three halls, an outdoor rink, ball diamonds, and tennis and pickleball courts on Chicoutimi Drive. Two schools are inside: Banff Trail School (K–5, French Immersion) and Senator Patrick Burns (grades 7–9, Spanish bilingual). West Confederation Park has a bike pump track, and there are two off-leash areas.
Things to do: the Triwood arena, halls and outdoor rink on Chicoutimi Drive; West Confederation Park’s spray park, tennis courts and ball diamonds, with a new outdoor rink coming this winter; the bike pump track on Canmore Road; trails and off-leash areas in Nose Hill Park; and Nose Hill Library a couple of minutes east.
Farmers’ market: Triwood Farmers’ Market, 2244 Chicoutimi Drive NW — select weekend dates, 10 am–2 pm, June to October. Year-round, the closest is Hillhurst Sunnyside Farmers’ Market (1320 5 Avenue NW), about 3 km away.
