Living

Wainwright is a unique town that offers all the amenities of an urban centre, combined with the comfortable characteristics of a rural community.

We have been rated the most affordable community in the last 2 Alberta-wide surveys comparing 35 communities (2016 & 2018 Alberta Spatial Price Survey).

Our older district is lined with mature elm trees and character homes that exude character, charm and elegance that make you feel comfortable the very first time you see them.

Our new and steadily expanding section of real estate in Wainwright has the look and feel of a modern urban centre that would appeal to the most modern taste.

Wherever you live, you will be conveniently close to inviting parks, newly developed playgrounds, schools, and expanding business districts.

Wainwright is proud of its numerous recreational amenities including:

  • Peace Memorial Multiplex (with twin hockey rinks)
  • Walking Track and Climbing Wall
  • Wainwright Communiplex (pool, weight training, dance studio, and theatre)
  • Outdoor Soccer Fields
  • Baseball Diamonds
  • Tennis Courts
  • Walking Trails

Some of our cultural activities include:

  • Wainwright Theatre
  • Dance Society
  • Local Museum

Wainwright offers a unique country lifestyle with urban amenities all within a two-hour drive east of Edmonton.
