By the numbers
Westgate 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 Westgate
Fun facts: Westgate's land was once William Tregillus's "Roscarrock Ranch," spelled with one "s"; Rosscarrock, next door, uses two. A 500-car drive-in movie theatre opened at 17 Avenue and 45 Street in 1954 and ran until 1979. The "TransitStory" sculpture of 30 traveller silhouettes stands at 45 Street station. Every named street starts with "W," such as Westminster, Warwick, Waverley and Winchester. In spring, the hockey rink turns into pickleball courts.
Westgate is in SW Calgary between Bow Trail, 17 Avenue, 45 Street and Sarcee Trail. The land was annexed in 1956, and homes on its curving streets were built from the late 1950s on.
The community association runs a hall with two outdoor rinks, fitness classes and a February Winterfest, and its newsletter is called "The Westgator." 45 Street CTrain station is at the southeast corner, and Westbrook Mall is one stop east.
Things to do: Hike Edworthy Park, just across Bow Trail. Skate the community rinks in winter. Go to Winterfest for sleigh rides and fireworks. Borrow a book from one of the Little Free Libraries. Shop at Westbrook Mall. Visit Calgary Cycle on Bow Trail.
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 4 km away. Year-round, the closest is Hillhurst Sunnyside Farmers’ Market (1320 5 Avenue NW), about 5 km away.

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 Westgate and I will confirm the designated school before you write an offer.
What are homes selling for in Westgate?
Community-level prices move month to month, so a number published on a website is out of date almost immediately.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 Westgate — what closed, at what price, and how long it took.
