North Ridge Neighbourhood St. Albert
North Ridge is bordered by Ray Gibbon Drive, Villeneuve Road and Giroux Road, and although it does not have commercial zoning, the major routes it is surrounded by make local amenities easy to access. It has one of the shortest tenures being that once children grow up and leave home, empty nesters simply want to move to a community that has amenities within a closer walking distance. It is home to the elementary and junior high Sturgeon Heights School and has the largest population of children. The countless parks, walking trails, and outdoor rink make this such a vibrant and energetic place to call home. Development began in the 2000s as a response to the boom of the city and from the beginning young families quickly took an interest. The nature-focused atmosphere is ideal for getting out and enjoying the outdoors. Families have also taken on a new tradition during Halloween, putting a fire pit on their front driveway and handing out candy to all the little trick-or-treaters. It really is a close-knit place to call home.
