Life in Somerset
Somerset sits in south Calgary between 162 Avenue SW and Stoney Trail, west of Macleod Trail, with Bridlewood to the west and Shawnessy to the north and east. It was established in 1995, and most homes were built in the late 1990s and 2000s, mainly detached two-storeys, with some low-rise condos and townhomes.
Somerset–Bridlewood station, the south end of the Red Line, sits on the community’s border, so downtown is a straight train ride. Shawnessy Shopping Centre is next door, Somerset School serves younger students, Spruce Meadows is a short drive west, and Stoney Trail connects you across the city. Somerset shares its community association with Bridlewood.
Who Tends to Love It Here
Somerset tends to suit families who want a newer detached home near the CTrain, first-time buyers looking at condos and townhomes, and commuters who want a train to downtown.
