Argyll, a quaint and inviting neighborhood in Edmonton, Alberta, boasts a rich history and a strong sense of community. Originally part of the Hazeldean area, Argyll was established as its own entity in the mid-20th century, specifically after World War II, when residential development began to flourish. The neighborhood's name, inspired by Argyllshire, Scotland, reflects the Scottish heritage of many of Edmonton's early settlers. Today, Argyll is home to around 850 residents, according to the 2019 municipal census, and features a mix of residential, recreational, and parkland spaces, making it a peaceful enclave within the bustling city of Edmonton.
