Secord
Secord is a newer west Edmonton neighbourhood named for Laura Secord, the Canadian heroine of the War of 1812 — a patriotic naming choice that reflects Edmonton's practice of honouring Canadian historical figures in its newer residential communities.

What to know about Secord.
Secord is a newer west Edmonton neighbourhood named for Laura Secord, the Canadian heroine of the War of 1812 — a patriotic naming choice that reflects Edmonton's practice of honouring Canadian historical figures in its newer residential communities. Developed primarily through the 2010s west of 215 Street alongside Rosenthal, Secord has established itself as one of the more active new-family destinations in west Edmonton's current growth corridor.
The housing stock is primarily newer single-family homes and townhomes from the 2010s, with the contemporary construction standards — open-concept main floors, larger master suites, attached double garages, energy-efficient building envelopes — that Edmonton's recent residential development has standardized. Some multi-family housing provides a range of price-point options. Active builder presence means ongoing new construction supply. Most homes are relatively new and in good original condition.
The west Edmonton commercial infrastructure along Stony Plain Road and 170 Street is accessible to the east. The Anthony Henday provides ring road connectivity. Schools are developing alongside the residential growth, with both public and Catholic options serving the area. The community league is establishing itself as the neighbourhood's resident base grows and community identity develops.
For buyers, Secord is a newer west Edmonton community — contemporary construction, developing amenities, ring road access, and accessible pricing at the current western edge of Edmonton's residential footprint. For sellers, family buyers seeking newer west Edmonton construction at competitive prices represent the primary and growing market as the community continues to develop.
