Moving in Kingsland, Calgary: the details that matter
Streets, parking and the truck
Kingsland is a 1.4 km2 block between Glenmore Trail, Macleod Trail, Heritage Drive and Elbow Drive, just south of Chinook Centre across Glenmore. Side streets have free curb parking but the apartment buildings have small lots, so the truck usually sits on the street; Glenmore Trail at Macleod is a braided interchange.
The homes and buildings here
The 2,380 households of 2021 were 26% single-detached, 6% semi-detached, 9% row, 4% duplex flats, 36% apartments under five storeys and 18% apartments in buildings of five or more storeys. Some 67% of dwellings were built before 1981, though 7% went up between 2016 and 2021 as new condos.
Who moves in Kingsland
Kingsland had 4,900 residents in 2021 and 68% of households rent, with a $68,000 median household income and 33% of residents immigrants. Our usual job is a one- or two-bedroom apartment move, often a walk-up without an elevator, with a few families buying bungalows near St. Augustine school.
One tip for your Kingsland move
Most Kingsland apartment buildings are older walk-ups, so book the earliest slot and ask the landlord for the visitor stalls nearest the door; if you are moving into one of the new condos built since 2016, get the elevator booked and the loading-bay height, since some bays are too low for our box truck.
