By the numbers
Deer Run 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 Run
Fun facts: Deer Run’s homes are laid out in circles, or “pods,” arranged like spokes on a wheel. The ranch next door was homesteaded in 1873 and named the “Bow Valley Ranche” — then bought in 1902 by Patrick Burns, who dropped the “e.” And you can eat in its history: the restaurant is in an 1896 ranch house, and Annie’s Café is in a 1905 farmhouse.
Deer Run is a southeast community tucked into a bend of the Bow River, established in 1978 (the typical home dates to 1981), with Fish Creek Provincial Park wrapping around its east and south sides. Bow Bottom Trail ends at the park, so there’s little through traffic. Deer Run Plaza on 146 Avenue covers the basics, and neighbours are Deer Ridge, Diamond Cove, Parkland and Queensland.
Deer Run School (K–6) sits beside the community centre, which has a gym, a weight room, a racquetball court, two lighted outdoor rinks, ball diamonds and a soccer field. A 16.7-hectare off-leash area is shared with Deer Ridge.
Things to do: dinner at the Bow Valley Ranche Restaurant; lunch at Annie’s Café; trails from the Bow Valley Ranch Visitor Centre; Hull’s Wood picnic area, with an amphitheatre and firepits; and the community centre’s rinks, gym and yearly Stampede Breakfast.
Nearest farmers’ market: Fresh & Local Market, Avenida Village, 12445 Lake Fraser Drive SE — Thursday to Sunday, year-round, indoors — about 5 km away.
