Moving in Scenic Acres, Calgary: the details that matter
Streets, parking and the truck
Scenic Acres is boxed by Crowchild Trail, Nose Hill Drive and Stoney Trail, with Scenic Acres Terrace, Scenic Ridge Crescent, Scimitar Heath, Scandia Hill and Scripps Landing winding along the coulee edge. Streets are front-drive, and Crowfoot LRT station next door has no road link into the community, so we enter from Nose Hill Drive.
The homes and buildings here
Established in 1981; 39 percent of dwellings were built 1981-1990 and 54 percent in 1991-2000. About 90 percent are detached 1990s two-storeys, walkouts and view lots with attached garages, 7 percent are semi-detached and 3 percent row townhouses on a handful of sites. There are no apartment buildings.
Who moves in Scenic Acres
Scenic Acres had 7,850 residents in 2021, with 92 percent owning and only 8 percent renting in households averaging 2.7 people and a median income of $134,000. Only 8 percent of residents moved in the previous year, so most bookings are owners leaving a three- or four-bedroom house they have held for decades.
One tip for your Scenic Acres move
Walkout homes along the coulee have their garage at street level and a full living floor below grade with a separate rear entrance; if you have a basement suite or storage down there, tell us, because that furniture comes out through the lower door and around the side, not up the stairs.
