By the numbers
Midnapore 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.

About Midnapore
Fun facts: Until 1883 the area was called Fish Creek; legend has it the name Midnapore came from a letter meant for Midnapore, India, that was delivered here by mistake. In 1889, Samuel Shaw opened a woollen mill on Fish Creek, which Alberta Parks calls Alberta's first industry; fire destroyed it in 1917. About 1.5 million cubic yards of sand were moved in 1976 to make the 30-acre Lake Midnapore, which holds about 625 million litres and is up to 10 metres deep.
Midnapore is in far south Calgary, between Macleod Trail and Fish Creek Provincial Park, with Sun Valley Boulevard to the south. It was annexed in 1961, and the community was established in 1977 around the private Lake Midnapore.
Lake residents have a beach, boats, fishing, pickleball and skating. The Mid-Sun Community Association, shared with Sundance, runs a centre with a gym, pickleball and a seniors' card club, plus a community garden with 62 beds. Fish Creek–Lacombe CTrain station is on the west edge.
Things to do: Walk or bike into Fish Creek Provincial Park. Have brunch at the Bow Valley Ranche Restaurant. Swim at Sikome Lake in summer. See historic St. Paul's Anglican Church. Rent a bed at the Mid-Sun Community Garden. Try the birria tacos at Fiesta Market.
Nearest farmers’ market: Fresh & Local Market, Avenida Village, 12445 Lake Fraser Drive SE — Thursday to Sunday, year-round, indoors — about 3 km away.

The lake at Midnapore
Midnapore is one of Calgary's lake communities. Residents get private access to the lake; the public does not.

| Association | Midnapore Lake Residents Association Ltd. |
Only properties with an encumbrance registered on title can be members. The lake holds a private Class 'A' Fish Culture Licence, which is why no provincial fishing licence is needed.
The lake fee is not optional. It is an annual residents' association fee that runs with the title, not a membership you can decline. Budget for it the same way you budget for property tax, and check the current amount before you write an offer — it changes.

Which schools serve Midnapore?

What are homes selling for in Midnapore?
Community-level prices move month to month, so a number published on a website is out of date almost immediately. Call 403-464-6672 and I will pull the actual recent sales in Midnapore — what closed, at what price, and how long it took.
