Lakeview Real Estate — a tranquil Calgary neighbourhood with a great sense of community.
The community of Lakeview in southwest Calgary is one of the most sought-after suburbs, known for its spectacular houses, picturesque setting, and laid-back lifestyle.
The western city borders are located between Glenmore Trail SW and Crowchild Trail SW to 37th Street SW. To the west, it is bordered by the Tsuu T'ina Nation Indian reserve.
The properties south of 66th Avenue are part of Lakeview Village, a smaller neighbourhood with larger, more opulent properties. North Glenmore Park is mistakenly referred to as Lakeview since it is located east of Crowchild Trail SW, near the Earl Grey Golf Course, Longridge Drive, and 50th Avenue SW.
The Macleod Trail connects Lakeview community members to some of Calgary's best retail and entertainment hotspots, such as the Chinook Mall. Lakeview is also a paradise for outdoor enthusiasts.
The variety of golf courses in the area will appeal to homebuyers, and the Elbow River area is replete with walking and hiking paths where you can easily lose yourself all day. Glenmore Park is the ideal setting for all types of outdoor sports, with rowing clubs, canoeing clubs, and sailing clubs all nearby.

Demographics
Lakeview was formed during a time when Calgary was starting on a major urbanisation project that would influence the city's layout. In 1956, the city annexed the Lakeview housing area, and construction began six years later, in 1962.
Lakeview was named after the view of Glenmore Reservoir that its position provides. Engineered Homes Ltd. of Calgary built many of the earliest houses in the area. Ward 11 councillor represents the neighbourhood on the Calgary City Council.
In 2000, inhabitants in this neighbourhood had a median household income of $64,535, and 5.2% of the families were considered low-income. Nearly 17% of the housing is rented while the remaining properties are occupied by their owners.
The community's median age is 43.9 years, with an average of 3 persons per family and an almost equal gender ratio of 50% male and female residents. About 19% of the residents here are over the age of 65, compared to 10% for the rest of Calgary.
Housing
Many people bought houses in Lakeview Village to get away from the chaos and bustle of city life and live in a more serene environment. As a result, single-family detached houses make up the bulk of Lakeview homes for sale. Because of their large architecture and aesthetic appeal, many may be classified as luxury or elite residences. Some condominiums have been constructed in the region recently, although they are still in the minority.
