Who We Are and Where We Live
Edmonton has a widely diverse population with many long term residents and an increasing number of new residents ready to make Edmonton home. Population growth continues strong through both net migration and natural increase as people move here and begin families. Our communities have a natural lifecycle as residents begin families, grow up and age.
The 2017 Growth Monitoring Report offers a summary snapshot of city growth, including sections on Edmonton's place in the region, demographics, land use, development patterns and trends, non-residential land, housing and hot spots for growth.
