Westmount is a historic and vibrant neighborhood located just northwest of Edmonton's downtown core. Established in the early 20th century, it quickly became one of the city's most desirable areas due to its beautiful tree-lined streets, character homes, and proximity to the business district. The neighborhood has maintained its old-world charm while evolving to meet modern living standards. Today, Westmount is home to approximately 6,000 residents living in around 3,500 homes, according to census data, and it continues to attract a diverse mix of people, including young professionals, families, and artists, who are drawn by its architectural beauty and community-oriented atmosphere.
