Who Lives in Applewood Park
Applewood Park holds 6,830 residents across 1,802 properties on the community's 1.3 km² SE footprint. The resident base is one of the most multicultural in Calgary at this end of the city — nearly 39% of residents in the most recent detailed community-profile release were foreign-born, well above the citywide average, giving the community a distinctive east-Calgary multicultural texture at street level that matches the wider International Avenue corridor. The multicultural texture shows up in the surrounding International Avenue retail mix along the community's north edge, where the BRZ concentrates independent restaurants and specialty grocery stores from a wide range of communities within a short drive of Applewood Park's interior streets. Ages skew middle and working — family households on the original 1980s detached lots make up the majority of the resident base, with a share of long-tenured original buyers still holding on interior streets. Median household income has historically run modestly below the citywide median, in line with the community's essentially all-detached 1980s suburban character and its far-east edge location. Rental share is modest and condo share is very low — most households are owner-occupier in detached homes on the original 1980s lots. For a comparable SE community at a similar price and mix, the Penbrooke Meadows profile covers the direct north neighbour along the same International Avenue corridor.

Living in Applewood Park
Housing in Applewood Park is largely detached single-family — the community was built out through the 1980s on the far-east edge of Calgary along the International Avenue corridor, with curved streets, developer-set lot sizes, and mature landscaping now filling in the original 1982 grid. The community’s northern edge sits along the 17 Ave SE International Avenue Business Revitalization Zone, one of Calgary’s most concentrated multicultural retail corridors, which brings a wide range of independent restaurants and specialty grocery stores within a short drive on the community’s north side. 68 Street SE forms the community’s approximate east boundary and connects north to Memorial Drive E and south to the Rocky View County municipal edge. There is no CTrain station inside Applewood Park; the closest LRT is the Blue Line at Marlborough and Franklin, both further northwest along the International Avenue corridor. For a same-batch peer immediately east across the community boundary, the Red Carpet/Mountview Mobile Park profile is the direct east neighbour and closest reference; for a same-corridor peer further west along 17 Ave SE, the Albert Park/Radisson Heights profile covers the west International Avenue corridor.
Things to do in Applewood Park
Elliston Park and Elliston Lake sit immediately southwest of the community and are the primary outdoor draw — the park is the annual venue for the GlobalFest international fireworks competition each August, with the fireworks fired from the park itself into the sky over the wider east-Calgary night. Elliston Park’s paved multi-use pathway loops around Elliston Lake and connects into the wider SE pathway network for cycling, running, and off-leash dog walking. The International Avenue (17 Ave SE) corridor along the community’s north edge is one of Calgary’s core multicultural retail strips, with restaurants, grocery stores, and small independents concentrated along the strip and extending west into Forest Lawn — the Forest Lawn profile covers the direct west peer on the same corridor. 68 Street SE and 17 Ave SE together give the community quick access into the wider east-Calgary retail and services network. Any specific business inside or near the community is easiest to find through the Applewood Park business directory, which pulls current City of Calgary business-licence records.
The Applewood Park real-estate read
Applewood Park’s average assessed value sits at $564K against the citywide $732K, reflecting the community’s essentially all-detached 1980s suburban character on the far-east edge along the International Avenue corridor. Values rose 17.3% year-over-year against the citywide 15.2% pace, running ahead of the wider Calgary market during the current cycle. Building activity sits at 32 permits filed since 2024, weighted toward interior renovations and infill work as the original 1980s homes turn over on the assessment roll. The community’s average build year sits around 1996, reflecting the concentrated 1982-era buildout. On safety, disorder runs at 27.8 events per 1,000 residents against the citywide baseline of 54 per 1,000 — well below the citywide baseline. Year-over-year, the community’s disorder rate held roughly steady compared with the year before. For a comparable SE detached community at a similar value range, the Southview profile is a close reference along the same International Avenue corridor.
Common Questions About Applewood Park
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.
