Area Overview

Vegreville is a vibrant community; rich in cultural heritage and progressive in terms of facilities, municipal government, and above all, people. Friendly and vital, it is an excellent place to live with reasonable housing/rental prices, top-class educational, medical, recreational, and cultural facilities and a wide range of retail services. Given its proximity to Edmonton, the town's residents enjoy the best of both worlds -- a clean, safe and affordable place to live with the specialized services and attractions of a large urban centre less than an hour drive away.

Vegreville is in the heart of central Alberta, on the twinned Trans-Canada Yellowhead Highway. Connections south to Calgary are made via Highway 2. Highway 36, a few miles east of the Town, is a major north-south corridor in eastern Alberta. A CNR rail line runs through Vegreville. The Town is also serviced by a modern airport with complete facilities including a lighted 4000 foot runway. For more information on this undiscovered gem among central Alberta's community airport facilities, visit the Town's website at www.vegreville.com.

With a population of approximately 5,520 Vegreville offers a complete range of services, a friendly small-town atmosphere, and is within close proximity to Edmonton. All these features make the Town an attractive place to reside.

Vegreville has excellent, first class educational, medical, cultural, and recreational facilities. The showpiece of the Town's recreational facilities is an indoor Aquatic and Fitness Centre.

The Town's facilities encourage family participation, allow for year-round recreation programs and attraction of major sports tournaments. Elk Island National Park and Beaverhill Lake Sanctuary are west of Town. The lakes to the north of Vegreville are renowned for their walleye, pike, trout, and perch and many are excellent for swimming or boating.

Vegreville is noted for its multicultural activities, in particular the Ukrainian Pysanka Folk Festival held in early July. Community agencies, societies, service clubs, and the various community facilities are the hub of activity throughout the year.

A place to worship for most faiths is located within the Town and rural area. It is not uncommon for neighbours to lend a helping hand and thus, the churches play an important role in improving community life and adding to the attractiveness of living in Vegreville.
