By the numbers
Fairview 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 Fairview
Fun facts: Each December, "Light Up Fairview" counts the decorated houses street by street. Almost every street name starts with "F", like Fawn, Flint, Fulham and Fyffe. Volunteers painted hopscotch, a maze and a pickleball court on the old arena parking lot and named it the "Sparking Lot."
Fairview sits between Glenmore Trail, Blackfoot Trail, Heritage Drive and Macleod Trail. It was annexed in 1956 and built from 1959, mostly as bungalows on curving streets, with some apartments. Fairview Industrial wraps around it on three sides.
Fairview Shopping Centre is on Fairmount Drive, and Chinook Centre is just across Glenmore. Heritage CTrain station is next door at the south end, and bus route 10 runs through. Parks include Flavelle Park, Flint Park and Fairview Park.
Things to do: Skate at the Flavelle Park outdoor rink by the firepit. Catch Movie in the Park at Flavelle. Grab a book from one of eight Little Free Libraries. Shop at Chinook Centre. Take the CTrain from Heritage station.
Farmers’ market: Calgary Farmers’ Market South, 510 77 Avenue SE — Thursday to Sunday, 9 am–5 pm, year-round, indoors.
