Woodbine Calgary is an SW community roughly 14 km southwest of the downtown core, bordered on the north by Anderson Road, on the east by 24 Street SW, on the south by Fish Creek Provincial Park, and on the west by Tsuut’ina Trail. Average assessed value sits at $717K, up 16.3% year-over-year — running above the citywide average change of 15.2%, a swing that reads as one of the SW’s better-priced established suburban entry points on the Fish Creek Provincial Park boundary. The community was established in 1980, and the average year built across the 3,345 residential properties is 1983, which places most of the built form inside the early-1980s SW master-planned cycle. The Fish Creek Provincial Park frontage on the south gives the community a rare direct edge onto one of Canada’s largest urban provincial parks — a natural boundary rather than an arterial one, and the defining amenity for daily life along the community’s southern blocks. The full comparative picture is inside Calgary’s 219 community profiles.

The Average Property Assessment in the snapshot above ($717K) is drawn from the live current-year assessment feed, which uses a broader aggregation than the year-specific rolls in the table — small differences between the two are normal.

The census-2021 population is 8,745 across the 3,345 residential properties, giving a household size in line with the citywide detached-suburban average. The age composition tilts toward the older-established SW suburb pattern: 36% aged 40 to 64, 22% aged 20 to 39, 22% aged 0 to 19, and 20% aged 65 and over. The 65-plus share is one of the largest in the batch, consistent with an early-1980s community where the original first-generation family cohort has aged in place through the empty-nester and retirement years and where the community's park-adjacent character has kept long-tenured residents in place rather than pushing them to newer master-planned SW suburbs. The under-19 share is meaningfully smaller than in the newer 2000s and 2010s SW communities, reflecting the community's completion of its family-formation cycle. Household composition on the interior blocks reads as a mix of long-tenured retirees, empty-nesters, and second-generation move-in families who took over the mature two-storey homes as the original owners downsized locally into the retail-adjacent townhouse cluster. For a similar SW mature-suburb age curve at a comparable park-adjacent build vintage, the Evergreen profile is the closest reference on the west side of Fish Creek Provincial Park.

Living in Woodbine

The community reads as a mature early-1980s SW suburb pressed against the Fish Creek Provincial Park boundary, with a Tsuu T’ina Nation edge on the west side across Tsuut’ina Trail. The dominant built form is early-1980s two-storey detached and split-level on suburban lots, with attached townhouses and duplexes scattered along the internal collectors and closer to the retail edge. Because the community has been settled for more than four decades and the average year built is 1983, streetscapes read as fully second-generation — grown-in front-yard landscaping, mature developer street trees, and the settled character of a community where most of the original owners have either aged in place or turned the property over to a second family cycle. Anderson Road on the north forms the boundary with Woodlands, 24 Street SW on the east forms the boundary with Cedarbrae and Braeside, Tsuut’ina Trail on the west forms the boundary with Tsuu T’ina Nation land, and Fish Creek Provincial Park itself forms the natural southern edge. Woodbine has no LRT station inside the community; the nearest Red Line station is Fish Creek-Lacombe, a bus transfer away. MAX Yellow bus rapid transit serves the community directly, with Woodview and Woodpark stations along the route into the wider SW transit network. The park boundary on the south makes the southern blocks a genuinely quiet edge with the pathway system and mature Bow-tributary forest immediately at the doorstep, and the community’s location backing onto the provincial park rather than another suburban community is the defining feature that separates it from the interior SW ring.

Things to do in Woodbine

Fish Creek Provincial Park is the defining amenity along the community’s southern boundary — one of Canada’s largest urban provincial parks, with an extensive pathway network, mature riparian forest, and direct off-leash and hiking access from the community’s southern blocks. Woodbine Square is the community’s dedicated retail anchor, a 98,022-square-foot mall serving the immediate day-to-day grocery, restaurant, and service catchment. Woodbine Elementary (public) and St. Jude Elementary School (Catholic) both serve the community’s elementary catchment inside the boundaries, giving families a walkable school-and-park network that combines with the Fish Creek pathway access on the south. The park’s off-leash areas, ball diamonds, and pathway system are the community’s main daily outdoor-amenity draw, and the residential blocks immediately backing onto the park boundary carry the strongest premium in the community’s price distribution. MAX Yellow BRT with Woodview and Woodpark stations provides the community’s rapid-transit link into the wider SW transit network. For a similar Fish Creek Provincial Park-adjacent SW reference at a comparable build vintage, the Evergreen profile is the closest same-cluster read on the west side of the park. For a nearby Glenmore Reservoir-community contrast at a similar SW postwar and mid-suburban vintage, the Lakeview and North Glenmore Park profiles round out the SW park-adjacent set.

The Woodbine real-estate read

An average assessed value of $717K places Woodbine Calgary in the upper band of the established SW suburban belt, above most of the older postwar SW homes and roughly in line with the neighbouring Woodlands and Cedarbrae ring. The +16.3% year-over-year change runs above the citywide average of +15.2% — a swing consistent with a well-located park-adjacent community where the Fish Creek Provincial Park frontage and MAX Yellow BRT access have supported strong first-time-buyer and downsizer demand pushing values up sharply. Building Activity is modest relative to the community’s size: 130 new-construction permits since 2024, 1 demolition, and 11 suite permits, which reads as a settled infill-and-secondary-suite pattern rather than any large redevelopment cycle. The Property Values section above breaks the current distribution across the 3,345 properties, and the historical curve (from $540K in 2023 to $585K in 2024 to $681K in 2025) shows the acceleration into the current +16.3% band. For a comparable Fish Creek Provincial Park-adjacent SW read at a similar build vintage, the Evergreen profile is the closest same-cluster reference; for the SE developer-lake variant at a higher price point, the Chaparral profile picks up the fish-creek-adjacent cluster on the SE side of the park. For the older SW Glenmore Reservoir-community contrast, the Lakeview and North Glenmore Park profiles round out the comparison set. The property count has held roughly flat between 3,345 and 3,346 across 2023-2025, confirming the community’s fully built-out status. That stability means further changes to the housing will come from unit-level infill and secondary suites rather than any greenfield expansion, and the 11 suite permits in the two-year window read as a slow but consistent trend of homeowners opening basement units to catch SW rental demand from the MAX Yellow BRT corridor.

FAQ

Common Questions About Woodbine

Why are there two average values on this page?

The page shows two related but distinct figures because they come from two different official City of Calgary datasets with different aggregation methods. The Average Property Assessment (in the snapshot at the top of the page and in the "vs Calgary Average" card) is drawn from the City's live current-year assessment feed, using a broad aggregation across all residential parcels. The Year-End Assessment Roll figures in the Property Values chart and table below come from a separate dataset that captures each year's official year-end roll, using a narrower per-year methodology. Both are official data — the small difference between them is normal and reflects the different aggregation windows. For an at-a-glance current value, use the Average Property Assessment; for authoritative year-over-year trends, use the Assessment Roll.
