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 Mission

Fun facts: Mission was its own village, Rouleauville, from 1899 until Calgary annexed it in 1907; at the start it had about 500 people, while Calgary had about 4,000. The village was named for two brothers from Quebec: Judge Charles-Borromée Rouleau and Dr. Édouard-Hector Rouleau, one of Calgary's first three doctors. 17 Avenue was once Notre Dame Road, and 18 Avenue was St. Joseph Street. In 2019, Calgary approved bilingual STOP/ARRÊT signs in Mission to honour Rouleauville, and volunteers raised the money.

Mission is in inner-city SW Calgary, between 4 Street SW, 17 Avenue and the Elbow River. It began as an Oblate mission in 1875 and is now home to St. Mary's Cathedral, heritage buildings and riverside apartments and homes.

Mission and Cliff Bungalow share a community association, which runs the Mission Community Garden in William Aberhart Park. 4 Street SW is lined with restaurants, bakeries and shops, the Elbow River pathway runs along the edge, and the MNP Centre is across the river in Lindsay Park.

Things to do: Take the free Rouleauville audio walking tour. Visit St. Mary's Cathedral and Rouleauville Square. Walk the Elbow River pathway to Elbow Island Park. Swim or work out at the MNP Centre. Eat and shop along 4 Street SW. Browse Masters Gallery.

Nearest farmers’ market: Crossroads Market, 1235 26 Avenue SE — Friday to Sunday, 9 am–5 pm, year-round, indoors (outdoor vendors in summer) — about 2 km away.

Which schools are inside Mission?

Which schools serve Mission?

What are homes selling for in Mission?

Community-level prices move month to month, so a number published on a website is out of date almost immediately.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 Mission — what closed, at what price, and how long it took.
