By the numbers
Scarboro/Sunalta West 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/Sunalta West
Fun facts: its official City name is “Scarboro/Sunalta West,” but locally it’s called “Upper Scarboro.” “Sunalta” is a blend of “sunny” and “Alberta.” Sunalta School was built from sandstone quarried just below it, and signs at the Oliver Quarry Park entrance tell that quarry’s story. The Sunalta Ravine and an old sandstone quarry were filled in around 1964 to build Crowchild Trail.
Scarboro/Sunalta West is a small community just west of Crowchild Trail, between Bow Trail and 17 Avenue SW. It came from the same 1910 plan as Scarboro, and nearly all homes are single-family houses, most built before 1960, with some newer infills.
It’s served by the Scarboro Community Association, whose heritage hall is at 1727 14 Avenue SW. Sunalta School is just east across Crowchild, and Sunalta CTrain station is nearby.
Things to do: Oliver Quarry Park, a green strip with city views; the community’s own off-leash area; Shaganappi Point Golf Course nearby (seasonal); Sunalta School’s playground and field, across Crowchild; and the Scarboro hall’s rink and playfields.
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 1.9 km away. Year-round, the closest is Hillhurst Sunnyside Farmers’ Market (1320 5 Avenue NW), about 2 km away.
