What Edmonton Neighbourhood is Right for You?

What Edmonton Neighbourhood is Right for You?

Posted: August 26 2022

Welcome to Edmonton — a big city in the heart of Alberta. Here, you can spend summer counting down the days to Folk Fest, walking through the river valley trails and shopping along Whyte avenue. When the snow comes, Edmontonians enjoy cups of hot cocoa while skating on the rinks around the city, going sledding with the family and cheering on their favourite hockey team (Let's go, Oilers! 😁). 

The city has a lot to offer — and each neighbourhood has its own unique personality! If you’re thinking of moving, you may be wondering which community is right for you. 

Landmark carefully selects which communities to build in, choosing ones that boom with opportunity and offer value for a variety of needs. So, truthfully, all of these communities are amazing! But grab a coffee, sit back and read everything each place has to offer to find what one calls your name the most.
