Roxboro Calgary Community Review
Roxboro is one of the most exclusive inner city communities in the southwest quadrant which has become a living destination of choice for urban professionals looking to own a Calgary luxury home in close proximity to the downtown area.
Roxboro Park is one of the many riverfront park areas found along the Elbow River connected by pathways that extend southward to the Glenmore Reservoir and northward to the Bow River and beyond.
Today, Roxboro real estate is in high demand, and like its neighbouring luxury community of Rideau Park, people tend to move and settle in the area for longer periods of time.
