Transportation

MacEwan is an extraordinarily good part of Edmonton for getting around by car. Most real estate listings are a rather short drive from the nearest highway, and parking is easy. On the other hand, MacEwan is not especially transit friendly. Nonetheless, there are a few bus lines, and bus stops are not very far from most homes. MacEwan is not especially well-suited for pedestrians as carrying out day-to-day needs is occasionally challenging without a vehicle. In contrast, bicycling is easy in MacEwan because the cycling network is fairly good, and it is a flat ride to most locations.

Housing

MacEwan experienced its largest construction boom following the year 2000, so most of the available housing is from this time period. In this part of Edmonton, about 45% of dwellings are single detached homes, while small apartment buildings and townhouses are also present in the housing stock. Homeowners occupy about 60% of the properties in the neighbourhood and 40% are occupied by renters. This neighbourhood is primarily composed of two bedroom and three bedroom homes.
