Pleasantview, aptly named for its scenic vistas and attractive streetscapes, is a vibrant neighborhood in south Edmonton. Established in the mid-20th century, specifically in the 1950s, Pleasantview has evolved from a primarily rural area to a thriving residential community. Part of Pleasantview used to be known as Martin Estate. The name Pleasantview comes from the fairly high hill in the neighbourhood. You can actually see downtown from the highest point in the neighbourhood.Its development was planned with a focus on creating a family-friendly environment, and over the decades, it has grown to include a diverse mix of amenities and housing options. Today, Pleasantview is home to approximately 3,381 residents, according to the latest census data, making it a well-populated and dynamic neighborhood.
