Edmonton Neighbourhood Profile

Glenridding Ravine

Glenridding Ravine is an Edmonton neighbourhood of about 1,701 homes — 100% houses and 0% condos, most homes built around 2022. The typical (median) house is assessed at $569,000, 27% above the citywide median (53rd of 277 neighbourhoods). The median assessed value changed +18% from 2019 to 2025, a stretch when Glenridding Ravine was still building out — so that reflects both value changes and a changing mix of homes. 97% of homes are owner-occupied, median household income is $126,000, and 3 public schools are designated for it. Figures throughout are City assessed values — directional and comparative, not exact sale prices ("typical" means the median).

Counts every change of address — moves within Glenridding Ravine, into it, owners and renters alike.

Housing costs & affordability

A household earning the local median income would put about 22% of it toward typical owner shelter costs here.

Heads up — these census housing-cost figures cover ~18% of today's homes here; read them as recent but partial.

Typical owner shelter cost

$2,320/mo

95% of owners hold a mortgage

Affordability in detail

Households spending 30% or more of their own income on their own shelter — the standard affordability-stress measure: 20% of owner households. (Different from the headline above, which compares the median cost against the median income — a typical-household what-if, not a count of stretched households.)

In core housing need (unaffordable, unsuitable or inadequate, with no affordable local alternative): 0% of owners.

Owners' own estimate of their home's value (2021): $500,000 median — self-reported, so it can differ from the assessed medians above.

Owner costs reflect current owners — including long-time, mortgage-free ones — not the cost to buy in today. The income-share figures compare 2020 median household income with shelter costs reported in 2021.

Schools

3 designated public schools. Edmonton Public catchment for Glenridding Ravine: George H. Luck, Riverbend and Strathcona.

All schools, levels & catchment notes

Designated public schools (Edmonton Public Schools catchment for Glenridding Ravine):

Catchments are set by the school board and can change — and the City's published catchment data can lag new schools and boundary updates — so confirm the current designated school with Edmonton Public Schools before relying on it.

Independent / private schools aren't in the City's open data, so they aren't listed here. School-quality ratings are published separately by the Fraser Institute (not affiliated with this site).

Landlord rental licences are excluded, and a listing isn't an endorsement.

Green-space types & notes

Types of green space:

  • Pocket park2
  • Greenway1
  • Natural area1
  • Urban village park1

Counts come from the City of Edmonton's parks and playgrounds open data. A park is attributed to the neighbourhood its centre point falls in, so a large park or greenway that spans several areas is counted once — treat boundaries as approximate. Trail corridors appear here as greenways; off-street bike routes aren't included.

Transit & connectivity

No LRT line in Glenridding Ravine today. The nearest station is Century Park (Capital Line), about 7.8 km away (straight-line). The neighbourhood is served by 2 bus routes.

Looking ahead, the nearest future stop is Heritage Valley North on the Capital Line South, about 4.8 km from the centre — under construction, targeted to open later this decade. Timelines can slip, and a nearby line doesn't imply any change in property values.

Bus routes & notes

2 bus routes serve Glenridding Ravine: 669 and 729. They run from 13 boardable stops inside the neighbourhood.

No route here meets the frequent-service bar (≈ 15-minute weekday headway).

Bus routes and frequency come from the City's ETS GTFS schedule — the routes whose trips call at stops inside Glenridding Ravine, with “frequent” meaning at least 100 weekday trips through the neighbourhood (about a bus every 15 minutes or better, counting both directions). Distances are straight-line (“as the crow flies”) from the neighbourhood centre — the actual walking or driving route is longer. Future stations are under construction; their locations and timelines come from City of Edmonton project pages and can change. Day-to-day commute mode (drive / transit / walk) is shown under “Who lives here.” Source: City of Edmonton LRT & ETS (GTFS) Open Data.

The market

Assessed value over time, and recent building activity.

Assessed value over time

Median assessed value changed +18% from 2019 to 2025.

But Glenridding Ravine was still being built out over this period, so the line reflects both value changes and a changing mix (more — often smaller — homes added). Read the shape, not just the endpoints.

$488,000 $577,250 2019202120232025

Building activity

Since 2018: 2,400 building permits, about 2,233 net new homes, and 295 secondary-suite permits.

Of those new units, roughly 74% are individually-owned (houses + condos), 26% purpose-built rental, and 0% in mixed-use buildings.

Owned Purpose-built rental

Split by building type (a strong proxy, not a guarantee of final tenure).

Permits year by year

Permits count every new home built — including purpose-built rental apartments and mixed-use buildings — so this can run well above the "total homes" figure above, which counts only individually-owned houses and condos.

About these figures. They use the City of Edmonton's annual property assessment — its mass-appraisal estimate of value as of July 1 the prior year, informed by that year's sales but applied across the whole roll at once. That makes it a reliable directional and comparative signal (ideal for "how does this neighbourhood compare"), but not the exact price a specific home would sell for today — for that you need a comparative market analysis. Resident demographics and housing-cost figures (income and its distribution, age, education, commute, tenure, household types, shelter costs, occupations and industries, mobility) and the building-type, bedroom and condition mix are from the 2021 federal census — the most recent neighbourhood-level vintage; the City notes it fell during the pandemic, so treat these figures as directional.
