Your New Greenfield Home in Edmonton

Greenfield is a residential neighbourhood located in southwest Edmonton, Alberta. The neighbourhood was named after Herbert Greenfield, the Premier of Alberta from 1921 to 1925. While the official name is Greenfield, residents like to call it Petrolia. 

After World War II, Edmonton experienced significant growth. Veterans returned to their lives and started families after the war, and several major oilfields surrounding the Edmonton city were discovered. This led to a tremendous increase in the city’s population. As a result, the demand for housing units increased dramatically.

Greenfield’s single-detached houses with large lots spiked the interest of people. People were attracted to Greenfield’s subdivisions that had large and relatively homogeneous lands arranged in crescents and cul-de-sacs. Newer styles of residences, schools and recreational facilities were appealing to many.

The city of Edmonton is just a 15-minute drive by car or bus from Greenfield. It is bounded on the north by a collector road and on the remaining three sides by major roadways. Most of the residential construction in the neighbourhood occurred between 1960 and 1980. Single-detached houses are the major structure type, which accounts for 92% of the residences, and are mostly owner-occupied. The above-average size residences face the quiet curvilinear streets. There are a few condos and town-homes available in the neighbourhood, which are mostly rented.
