Why live in Camrose?

Living in Camrose comes with many benefits. Number one is the excellent infrastructure. From public transportation to healthcare and schools, you have everything you need in Camrose. Second, living in Camrose is affordable, which is not something you can currently say about many Canadian cities. Relative to Vancouver, Toronto, and even the rest of Alberta, the cost of buying a home in Camrose is relatively low. Further, Camrose has a rural atmosphere with easy access to the outdoors that many locals love. If you try to enjoy the great outdoors as much as possible, then living in Camrose will be well-suited to you. The city has a mix of picturesque urban parks and larger provincial parks and conservation areas. A few of the most popular are Mirror Lake Park, Rudy Swanson Park, and Jubilee Park. Many of these parks have facilities like sports fields, picnic tables, children’s playgrounds, and walking paths. Camrose also has an extensive trail network encompassing over 38 kilometres. Meanwhile, if you want to spend a day hiking, fishing, swimming, snowshoeing, or cross-country skiing, head over to Camrose County Nature Conservation Centre, Miquelon Lake Provincial Park, Black Nugget Lake Park, and Coal Lake North Provincial Recreation Area. Other recreational activities that Camrose residents can engage in include golfing at the Camrose Golf Course, swimming at The Mayer Aquatic Centre, or playing sports at the various community centres in the city, such as Camrose Recreation Centre and Camrose Community Centre.

The Big Valley Jamboree, the largest outdoor country music festival in Canada, and the Jaywalkers Jamboree Annual Street Festival both take place in Camrose every year. One final reason to move to Camrose is the local economy.

Something wonderful about Camrose

Did you know that Camrose is affectionately known as the “Rose City”? It’s true, and the reason is that there is a large number of wild roses that grow in the parks that surround the city. There is even a specific variety of rose named after the city, the Camrose Rose. It was introduced in 1995 and was specially designed to withstand the harsh Alberta winters. The Camrose rose was created by local grower Jerry Twomey who created it to honour where he was born. Although you can find wild Camrose roses in the summertime, this special variety can also be seen at the Bill Fowler Centre, where it is on display. Given the abundance of roses in Camrose, going for a quaint stroll through the city during the warmer months is a must, and this is made easy thanks to the area’s Urban Park System.
