Town of Turner Valley This picturesque community nestled in the foothills of the Canadian Rocky Mountains is only 35 minutes south west of Calgary on the edge of Kananaskis Country. Alberta's first oil boom occurred in Turner Valley with Dingman #1 blowing in in 1914. Turner Valley was not only the first area in Alberta to hit oil but also enjoyed being the largest oil producer in the British Empire. Tourism plays a significant role in the economic development of Turner Valley with quaint shops, artisan studios, and breathtaking scenery. A growing artisan population have been attracted to the area to enjoy this magnicificent scenery and fresh mountain air. Turner Valley is a great place to live, close enough to commute to Calgary but far enough away to enjoy a less stressful way of life. Affordable housing, quality medical care, educational, recreational and retail facilities along with wide open spaces makes Turner Valley an attractive and ideal location to raise a family or retire to. |
