Pleasantview, Edmonton

Pleasantview, Edmonton

Pleasantview is a residential neighbourhood in south west Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.

While parts of the neighbourhood became part of Edmonton in 1914, residential construction dates from the years after the end of World War II. Just over one in five residences (22.3%), according to the 2001 federal census, were constructed between 1946, though neighbourhood information in the City of Edmonton [http://maps.edmonton.ca map utility] indicates some of these earlier residences are being replaced with newer construction. Just under half (46.9%)of the residences were built during the 1960s with most of the remainder (22.3%) being built during the 1970s.

Just under half (44%) of residences, according to the 2005 municipal census, are single family dwellings. Another one in five (20%) are rented apartments in high rise buildings with five or more stories, while one in five (20%) are apartments in low rise buildings with fewer than five stories. The remaining residences are divided almost equally between row houses (8%) and duplexes [Duplexes include triplexes and quadruplexes.] (7%). Just over half (51%) of all residences are owner occupied with just under half (49%) are rented. [http://censusdocs.edmonton.ca/C05002/MUNICIPAL%202005/Neighbourhood/PLEASANTVIEW.pdf]
