## Amenity Density Profile

McKenzie Lake contains 72 mapped amenity points across four categories. The largest group comprises 35 park locations, followed by 30 transit stops. These two categories account for nearly all mapped infrastructure in the neighbourhood boundary as of October 2026. The concentration suggests a layout designed around green space and public transit access rather than commercial retail nodes.

The remaining amenities include two schools and five recreation facilities. McKenzie Lake School and Blessed Cardinal Newman School are the only named educational institutions in the dataset. Five recreation points include McKenzie Community Centre and McKenzie Lake Residents Association. Most park and transit entries appear as generic labels, indicating limited naming detail in the underlying geographic data. Sources:

## City market context

From the Calgary market article, 22 September 2026:

Calgary's August 2026 real estate data reveals a market where falling supply is outpacing falling demand, pushing the sales-to-new-listings ratio above 60 percent. Despite this apparent tightness, apartment prices have corrected 13 percent from their 2024 peak, signaling a segment-specific softening that complicates the overall outlook. Calgary's August 2026 market shows a divergent signal: while total residential sales fell 16% year-over-year to 1,660 units, the sales-to-new-listings ratio pushed above 60% due to a sharper 10% drop in new listings. This suggests a short-term absorption spike rather than a broad-based demand recovery, as apartment prices remain 13% below their 2024 peak.
