Rosscarrock
Rosscarrock Calgary is a small inner-SW community established in 1954, bounded to the north by Bow Trail, to the east by 33 Street W, to the south by 17 Avenue SW, and to the west by 45 Street W. Average assessed values sit at $819K, above the citywide $819K, and they’ve climbed 15.2% year-over-year against the citywide 15.2% pace during the current cycle. What sets the community apart on the map is Westbrook Mall sitting inside the northeast corner — one of the few inner-SW communities that carries a mid-scale regional shopping centre within its own boundaries — and the West LRT Red Line running along the community’s western edge with the 45 Street station on the boundary. Rosscarrock is part of Calgary’s 219 community profiles.

Who Lives in Rosscarrock
The community holds 3,490 residents across 1,020 properties — a small footprint that keeps the neighbourhood among the smaller inner-SW communities by population. The age split shows a strong 20-to-39 lead over the other bands, consistent with an inner-SW community whose condominium and walk-up apartment buildings along the LRT corridor draw a younger renter and first-time-buyer base while the interior detached blocks house a smaller mix of long-time homeowners and second-generation buyers. The rental share has historically run well above the citywide average — the LRT-adjacent condominium and walk-up buildings make the community a natural landing spot for young professionals commuting downtown by rail. For a similar inner-SW community with a comparable renter-heavy inner-city character, the Bankview profile is the closest reference on demographic curve and inner-city walk-up mix.

Living in Rosscarrock
Housing is a genuine inner-SW mix — postwar single-family detached homes on the interior blocks, alongside a substantial share of condominium and walk-up apartment buildings along the arterial edges and along the LRT corridor. The community’s average build year sits around 1981, reflecting both the original 1954 postwar build-out and the sustained infill through the 1970s and 1980s that filled in the multi-family footprint. Interior streets follow a compact inner-city grid running north-south between Bow Trail on the north and 17 Avenue SW on the south. The West LRT Red Line runs along the community’s western edge; the 45 Street station sits on the west boundary, which puts downtown a short rail commute away for a majority of Rosscarrock addresses. Bow Trail on the north is a fast east-west connection into downtown or west into the outer SW, and the Shaganappi Golf Course borders the community’s east edge along 33 Street W. For a similar inner-SW community immediately south across 17 Avenue SW at a comparable price band, the Killarney-Glengarry profile is the closest reference on inner-city character; for the west neighbour across 45 Street W along the LRT line, the Westgate profile is the closer reference on postwar SW character.
Things to do in Rosscarrock
The community’s clearest single amenity is Westbrook Mall sitting inside the northeast corner — a mid-scale regional shopping centre anchored by Walmart and Canada Safeway that gives residents a walkable inside-community shopping destination most inner-SW communities can’t match. The West LRT Red Line running along the western edge with the 45 Street station on the boundary puts downtown a short rail commute away, and connects the community to the wider Red Line network through to the far-SW. The Shaganappi Golf Course borders the community’s east edge along 33 Street W and gives non-golfing residents pathway and open-space access along the fairway edges. Bow Trail on the north is a fast east-west connection into downtown or west into the outer SW, and the 17 Avenue SW retail strip along the community’s southern boundary carries independent restaurants, coffee shops, and specialty retail. School catchments route to the wider inner-SW public and Catholic networks; Rosscarrock Elementary and St. Michael Elementary sit inside the community — check the current Calgary Board of Education and Calgary Catholic School District attendance-area tools for the designated schools at a specific address. Any specific business inside the community is easiest to find through the Rosscarrock business directory, which pulls current City of Calgary business-licence records.
The Rosscarrock real-estate read
The community’s average assessed value sits at $819K, above the citywide $732K — a figure driven by the detached inner-city blocks commanding infill-redevelopment premiums that pull the average up despite the substantial condominium and walk-up share along the arterial edges. Values rose 15.2% year-over-year against the citywide 15.2%, running close to the broader Calgary pace during the current cycle. Building activity is high for a built-out inner-SW community: 159 permits filed since 2024, weighted toward infill redevelopment of postwar bungalows into duplex, townhome, and secondary-suite forms. The community’s average build year sits at 1981, consistent with the sustained 1970s-1980s infill on the 1954 postwar base. On safety, disorder runs at 209.7 events per 1,000 residents — well above the citywide baseline of 54 per 1,000, a figure the Westbrook Mall commercial footprint, the LRT-adjacent arterial mix, and the 17 Avenue SW retail strip partly explain. Year-over-year, the community’s disorder rate held roughly steady compared with the year before. For a similar-value inner-SW community immediately east across 33 Street W, the South Calgary profile is a close reference on inner-city character; for a similar inner-SW neighbour immediately south across 17 Avenue SW at a comparable price band, Killarney-Glengarry is the closer reference on inner-city mix. For a same-price-band inner-SW community west along the LRT, Glenbrook is a close reference on postwar SW character.
Common Questions About Rosscarrock
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.
