Ramsay is one of the smallest and most distinctive inner-city Calgary communities. Sitting on the hill above Inglewood, the community offers downtown and Bow Valley views from selected streets and direct walkability down to 9 Avenue SE.

Housing stock is mostly character pre-1950 with active infill activity. The streetscape is tight and the community feel is intimate. View streets command meaningful premiums.
