By the numbers
West Springs 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 West Springs
Fun facts: The area was named Springbank in 1887 "because of the numerous springs breaking out of the sides of the lesser coulees." West Springs wasn't part of Calgary until 1995, when it was annexed from Rocky View, and the community was established in 2001. Radio Park is built around a lake that stores stormwater for West District. The community association's Grow-a-Bed program has donated more than 170 kg of fresh produce to the Calgary Food Bank.
West Springs is in SW Calgary, between 69 Street and the Springbank acreages, with Old Banff Coach Road to the north and Bow Trail to the south. Its homes went up from the early 2000s on, and the Wentworth area sits on the higher ground to the west.
The West Springs/Cougar Ridge Community Association runs youth soccer, Movie in the Park, a Stampede breakfast and a community garden hub. 69 Street CTrain station is at the east edge, and West District and West 85th have grocery stores, restaurants and cafés.
Things to do: Spend a day at Radio Park, with its sprayground, skatepark, dog park and winter rink. Have dinner or brunch on Broadcast Avenue or at West 85th. Walk the pathway around the pond. Swim, skate or climb at Westside Recreation Centre. Ski or mountain bike at Canada Olympic Park. Take the CTrain downtown from 69 Street.
Nearest farmers’ market: Calgary Farmers’ Market West, 25 Greenbriar Drive NW — Wednesday to Sunday, year-round, indoors — about 3 km away.

Which schools serve West Springs?
A school being the closest one does not make it the designated one — catchments change year to year and can split a single street. Send me the exact address in West Springs and I will confirm the designated school before you write an offer.

Community-level prices move month to month, so a number published on a website is out of date almost immediately.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