AI insight

Franklin posts Calgary's highest median assessed residential value ($775,500) despite only one residential parcel.

Franklin appears as an industrial‑zoned pocket with virtually no residential footprint, yet hosting a small school cluster and strong transit links. Reported crime has tended to fall sharply in the past year, though the area lacks local parks and amenities.

Highlights
  • Median residential assessed value rose 12.3% over five years to $775,500.
  • The community contains one elementary and two senior high schools inside its boundary.
  • Twenty bus stops lie within Franklin and the Marlborough LRT station is just 0.4 km away.
  • Reported incidents dropped 36.6% year‑over‑year to 104 in 2024.
  • Assault (non‑domestic) and theft from vehicle remain the most frequent offence types.
Worth noting
  • Only one residential parcel is recorded, offering very limited housing choice.
  • No park sites or community amenities are found within the community boundary.
  • The nearest fire station is 1.4 km away, which may affect response times.
