Bel-Aire community overview
A southwest estate setting with a distinct residential scale.
Bel-Aire is an established southwest Calgary community in the wider Glenmore Reservoir district. Its detached-home setting makes land, architecture and privacy central to the search.
What to balance
The garden, house and equipment can create a meaningful maintenance commitment. Recreation nearby should be distinguished from direct access or membership rights.
Historical community snapshot
Bel-Aire by the numbers.
These dated figures come from The City of Calgary, 2021 Census Community Profile: Bel-Aire. They add historical context to the community guide; current homes and market conditions are shown separately.

Households and mobility
A community snapshot with the reference year attached.
The profile counted 400 people in private households across 145 households, with an average household size of 2.8 people.
19% of the population was age 14 or younger, 23% was age 65 or older, 20% were immigrants. These figures describe Bel-Aire at the 2021 Census reference date and should not be read as a prediction of who will buy a particular home.
Across 145 private households, median total household income before tax was $280,000 in 2020; this is demographic context, not a measure of current purchasing power or home value.
150 residents aged five and older had moved within the prior five years (38%); that is household-mobility context rather than a proxy for real estate turnover.
100 members of the employed labour force used driver – car, truck or van as their main commute mode (87%), while 60 reported the most common duration, less than 15 minutes (52%).
