Direct answers

Killarney/Glengarry, answered before the long read.

Concise, extractable answers first; evidence, definitions and property-level limitations follow below.

01

The guide uses the exact named 2021 official profile for historical community context. It does not treat that profile as current inventory, price or evidence about an individual property.

945 occupied private dwellings were reported as single-detached houses in the 2021 Census profile (26%); 785 apartments in buildings with fewer than five storeys represented another 22%.

03

When was much of the occupied Killarney/Glengarry housing stock built?

Killarney/Glengarry’s largest reported construction cohort was 1960 or before with 825 occupied private dwellings (23%), followed by 1961 to 1980 with 795 (22%).

Does community data describe every Killarney/Glengarry resident or home?

No. Historical aggregate data describes the named geography at its reference date; it cannot establish a person's circumstances or a property's current condition, price or suitability.

Official records provide dated community context. Current listing status and conclusions about one property still require the applicable live record and property documents.

Households and mobility

A community snapshot with the reference year attached.

The profile counted 7,920 people in private households across 3,620 households, with an average household size of 2.2 people.

17% of the population was age 14 or younger, 9% was age 65 or older, 23% were immigrants. These figures describe Killarney/Glengarry at the 2021 Census reference date and should not be read as a prediction of who will buy a particular home.

Across 3,620 private households, median total household income before tax was $99,000 in 2020; this is demographic context, not a measure of current purchasing power or home value.

4,115 residents aged five and older had moved within the prior five years (56%); that is household-mobility context rather than a proxy for real estate turnover.

1,975 members of the employed labour force used driver – car, truck or van as their main commute mode (72%), while 1,355 reported the most common duration, 15 to 29 minutes (49%).

Community evidence brief

A fuller Killarney/Glengarry foundation.

Killarney/Glengarry is an inner-city southwest Calgary market where original detached houses, newer infill, semi-detached and row products, and low-rise apartments compete at different ownership and price points. The official 2021 Census profile counted 7,920 people in private households and 3,620 private households. Single-detached houses represented 26% of occupied private dwellings and apartments in buildings under five storeys represented 22%; the 1960-or-before cohort was the largest single construction period at 23%, but later redevelopment is distributed throughout the community. Comparisons should separate property and ownership form, then test lot and block position, effective age, shared-wall or condominium obligations, renovation and permit records, parking, and immediate main-street or route context. Historical Census data is not current inventory or price evidence.

Community identity

Define the geography before describing the property.

Boundary discipline

  • Confirm the exact Killarney/Glengarry boundary and the listing's community field against the current municipal map or address record before publication.
  • Describe nearby services as nearby rather than inside the community unless the mapped boundary and current source support that wording.

Development and housing history

  • 23% of occupied private dwellings were reported in the 1960 or before construction cohort; the Census figure does not establish the age of a current listing.
  • 22% of occupied private dwellings were reported in the 1961 to 1980 construction cohort; the Census figure does not establish the age of a current listing.
  • 13% of occupied private dwellings were reported in the 2001 to 2010 construction cohort; the Census figure does not establish the age of a current listing.
  • 12% of occupied private dwellings were reported in the 2011 to 2015 construction cohort; the Census figure does not establish the age of a current listing.

Different contexts inside the community

  • Compare interior streets with route-, park-, amenity-, employment- or edge-adjacent locations where those conditions exist at the exact address.
  • Separate site and immediate-block conditions from a broad community label; view, noise, access, privacy, construction and land-use context can change within a neighbourhood.
