By the numbers
Scarboro 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 Scarboro
Fun facts: about 22% of Scarboro is green space, including little triangle parks at its curving corners. In 2026 the community applied to become a National Historic Site, with support letters from the City councillor and the Olmsted Network. And Sunalta School’s 1912 sandstone building carries a mural by local artist Dean Stanton.
Scarboro sits in inner southwest Calgary, from Bow Trail and 12 Avenue south to 17 Avenue, and from about 16 Street SW west to Crowchild Trail. It was laid out in 1910 with curving, tree-lined streets that follow the land, and nearly all homes are single-family houses, most built before 1960.
The Scarboro Community Association’s heritage hall at 1727 14 Avenue SW has an outdoor rink and playfields. Sunalta School serves the area, and Sunalta CTrain station is just east.
Things to do: a self-guided heritage walking tour of the curving streets; Triangle Park, the original 1927 park plot; the lilac-lined boulevards on Shelbourne Street, Sharon Avenue and Senlac Street; Sunalta School’s playground and naturalized schoolyard; and Cassis Bistro, just across 17 Avenue.
Nearest farmers’ market: Farmers & Makers Market at cSPACE Marda Loop, 1721 29 Avenue SW — Saturdays, 10 am–2 pm, late May to mid-October — about 1.6 km away. Year-round, the closest is Hillhurst Sunnyside Farmers’ Market (1320 5 Avenue NW), about 2 km away.
