By the numbers
Oakridge 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 Oakridge
Fun facts: Oakridge was part of Rocky View until Calgary annexed it in 1956, and building began in 1969. A 1966 plan laid out Oakridge together with Bayview, Pump Hill, Palliser, Cedarbrae and Braeside. "Glenmore" was named by pioneer Sam Livingston and is Gaelic for "big valley."
Oakridge is in SW Calgary, south of 90 Avenue and the Glenmore Reservoir, with Tsuut'ina Trail to the west. Most homes were built in the 1970s.
The community association runs an indoor arena, a racquet club with tennis, pickleball and squash, and a 35-plot community garden. There's also a seniors' group and a preschool. The rebuilt Oakridge Co-op is the main shopping spot, and Route 99 runs to Southland and Heritage CTrain stations.
Things to do: Walk or bike the 16 km Glenmore Reservoir pathway. Go birding in the Weaselhead. Take the kids to Variety Children's Park in South Glenmore Park. Skate at the Oakridge arena. Play tennis, pickleball or squash at the racquet club. Get coffee at Social Grounds.
Nearest farmers’ market: Haysboro Outdoor Market, 1204 89 Avenue SW — select Wednesdays, 3–6 pm, May to October — about 3 km away. Year-round, the closest is Fresh & Local Market (Avenida Village, 12445 Lake Fraser Drive SE), about 5 km away.
