Oakridge
Oakridge is an established single-family community on the southwest edge of Calgary, sitting directly south of the Glenmore Reservoir and the Weaselhead Natural Area. The community runs north to 90 Avenue SW, east to 24 Street SW, and wraps south and west along Southland Drive and Oakmount Drive, with Heritage Park Historical Village a short drive up the reservoir shoreline.
The land was annexed from Rocky View County in 1956 and built out through the 1970s, giving Oakridge the mature trees, wide lots, and quiet curvilinear streets that newer suburbs spend decades trying to grow. Neighbouring Palliser, Bayview, Cedarbrae, and Pump Hill round out this pocket of southwest Calgary prized for green space and reservoir access.
In Calgary's market, Oakridge trades as a value-driven inner-southwest option: detached homes on generous lots, walking distance to the water, at prices below the tighter luxury enclaves next door.
The Glenmore Reservoir defines outdoor life here. South Glenmore Park and the Weaselhead Flats sit at Oakridge's doorstep, with paved pathways, canoe and kayak launches, cycling loops, and birdwatching along the water. North Glenmore Park, the sailing and rowing clubs, and Heritage Park's shoreline are all within easy reach, and the community rink and green spaces keep recreation close to home year-round.
The Oakridge Community Association runs local programs, sports, and the neighbourhood rink from its hall off Oakmount Drive. Commuting is straightforward: 90 Avenue, Southland Drive, and 24 Street SW feed quickly onto 14 Street SW and Anderson Road, with Glenmore Trail carrying drivers east and west across the city. The Anderson CTrain station on the Red Line, a short drive southeast, connects Oakridge to downtown Calgary.
Everyday shopping centres on the Oakridge Co-op at Southland Drive and 24 Street SW, a full grocery store with a pharmacy, bakery, deli, and florist. Nearby Glenmore Landing, at 90 Avenue and 14 Street SW, adds restaurants, cafes, and services overlooking the reservoir, while Southland Drive and Anderson Road put big-box retail, dining, and the shops of neighbouring Willow Park and Southcentre within a few minutes' drive.
