## Local Infrastructure Profile

The neighbourhood contains 17 distinct amenity points distributed across three primary categories. This inventory includes five school locations and eleven park sites within the defined boundary. The concentration of these facilities provides a baseline for local residential services. Each point represents a mapped location rather than a measure of capacity or usage.

Five school points appear in the dataset, including Sister Mary Phillips School and École Dickinsfield School. Eleven park points are also recorded, with several identified by specific street names like Cree Road Park. One additional recreation point completes the total count of seventeen. These figures reflect the physical presence of infrastructure without detailing operational status or accessibility metrics. Sources:

## City market context

From the Fort McMurray market article, 21 September 2026:

Fort McMurray's housing market entered late 2026 with a marked reduction in available homes, as active listings dropped by nearly one-third compared to the previous year. This supply contraction supports price stability but leaves buyers facing a competitive environment with limited choices. Fort McMurray's residential market in August 2026 shows a significant contraction in available housing stock, with active listings falling from 421 to 278 year-over-year and new listings declining 14.29%. This supply-side tightening coexists with a median sold price of $388,000 and an average of 55 days on market, creating a seller's market dynamic where limited inventory meets steady demand.
