Edmonton area profile
Whitemud
Covers Riverbend, Terwillegar and Kaskitayo (the Blue Quill area).
Whitemud groups 31 Edmonton neighbourhoods — about 34,431 homes, 66.7% houses and 33.3% condos. The typical (median) house is assessed around $559,500, 25% above the citywide median; condos around $211,500. Across its established houses, the median assessed value changed +19% from 2012 to 2025. 72% of homes are owner-occupied, the average household income is about $143,096. Area figures are averages and City assessed values — directional, not sale prices ("typical" means the median; averages are noted as such).
“Whitemud” follows the City of Edmonton's official Whitemud planning district — one of 15 the City uses to group its 300+ neighbourhoods. Figures roll up the City's 2025 assessed values and the 2021 federal census across the area's neighbourhoods. Where a median can't be combined across neighbourhoods (income, age, shelter), the page shows the average instead — so those read higher than the medians on the neighbourhood pages and aren't directly comparable.

The market
How assessed values have moved, and how much has been built.
Assessed value over time
The median assessed house value changed +19% from 2012 to 2025.
Established houses — largely the same properties over time, so this mostly reflects real value change.
Building activity
Since 2015: 6,410 building permits and 3,450 net new units, plus 161 secondary suites.
Permits, units & suites year by year
Permits count every new home — including purpose-built rental and mixed-use buildings — so the yearly units can run above the owned house/condo count above. “Units” are net of demolitions, so a redeveloping year can read negative; “suites” are secondary-suite permits (basement / garden / garage suites).

About these figures. Area figures roll up the City's mass-appraisal assessed values and the 2021 federal census across this district's neighbourhoods — a directional, comparative signal, not the price a specific home would sell for. Income, age and shelter figures are averages (labelled), which read higher than medians and aren't directly comparable to the neighbourhood pages.
