By the numbers
Deer Ridge 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 Deer Ridge
Fun facts: the Yellowslide Park playground was built and donated by volunteers of the Deer Ridge Community Association. Nearly every street starts with “Deer” — Deercliff, Deercrest, Deerfield, Deermont, Deerpath, Deerpoint and Deerview. And each year the association runs a “Trash Bash” community cleanup, along with a Stampede Caravan Breakfast and a family winter skate.
Deer Ridge is a southeast community in the Bow River valley, annexed in 1961 and established in 1978 (the typical home dates to 1981). It runs from Canyon Meadows Drive south to Deer Run, between Bow Bottom Trail and the Bow River, with Fish Creek Provincial Park right on its east side. It includes the Deer Ridge Estates area and two 55+ villa complexes, and Deer Valley Village on 137 Avenue covers a clinic, a pub and restaurants.
Don Bosco School (preschool to grade 9 Catholic) is inside the community. The community association has no hall but runs hockey and leisure rinks, tennis and pickleball courts, four playgrounds, community gardens and an off-leash area.
Things to do: the outdoor rinks each winter; the free summer Movie in Yellow Slide Park; tennis, pickleball and the community gardens; birdwatching and river fishing at Mallard Point in Fish Creek Park; and walking and biking into the park.
Nearest farmers’ market: Fresh & Local Market, Avenida Village, 12445 Lake Fraser Drive SE — Thursday to Sunday, year-round, indoors — about 4 km away.
