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 Sunalta

Fun facts: The Pumphouse Theatres are in the city's old 1913 water pumphouse, saved by a campaign led by Joyce Doolittle. The theatre welcomed its one-millionth patron in 2005. Sunalta station is the only elevated station on the CTrain. The Sunalta Block was built in 1910. The Wildflower Garden sits on a lot that was gifted to the community.

Sunalta sits just west of downtown, next to the Beltline, with the Bow River to the north. Its streets are a mix of older character homes and newer infills, and downtown is a few minutes away by CTrain.

The community association runs the Community Hub, which has room for programs and events. The Bow River pathway is a short walk away.

Things to do: See a show at the Pumphouse Theatres. Browse board games at The Sentry Box. Visit the Wildflower Garden. Walk or bike the Bow River pathway. Join a program at the Community Hub.

Nearest farmers’ market: Hillhurst Sunnyside Farmers’ Market, 1320 5 Avenue NW — Wednesdays, 3–7 pm, year-round (outdoors late May to early October, then indoors) — about 1.7 km away.
