In this video I present some information about each of the major towns/cities that surround Edmonton and make up the metropolitan area.

Alberta is the fastest growing province in the country, but not everyone moving to this province wants to live in Edmonton or Calgary. Many people are more comfortable in a smaller city/town, and Edmonton has many surrounding communities to choose from.

I cover the following cities/towns in this video:

1 - Spruce Grove
2 - Stony Plain
3 - Devon
4 - Leduc
5 - Beaumont
6 - Sherwood Park
7 - Fort Saskatchewan
8 - Morinville
9 - Saint Albert

There are some other smaller towns included in Edmonton's metropolitan region, but I covered the major ones in this video. I would like to explore more Alberta small towns in future videos.

I hope you found this one interesting and informative, and if you'd like to watch more of my content in general please consider subscribing to my channel - I upload at least one new video per week.

Thanks for watching!

    Thanks for watching - if you're new to the Edmonton area this should give you a bit of information, although there's so much more to these cities/towns than I covered in this video. Do you have any favorites regrading these surrounding communities?
  • @claytonberg721
    One thing about edmonton is that a few of the surrounding communities are actually that, communities. Whereas most of the places surrounding calgary are just there because they people there want to live in calgary but can't afford it.

    I grew up in St. Albert (in the 70’s and 80’s) fourth generation to do so. Heading back soon to visit friends and family. Haven’t lived there in decades but it’ll always be home.

    Thank you for highlighting the smaller cities and towns of Canada!

    I was born in Sherwood park , right in the grass in the park , lol thanks brings back some early memories
  • @tominwpg
    Well done. We've been in the Sherwood Park for 3 1/2 years and this profile was really interesting.
  • @DigitalJeremy
    Love it; well researched and presented! I moved to Edmonton from BC in ~1994, and have been to every town mentioned. The restaurant tips are a great touch!
  • @burntumber
    Good video! I grew up in Westlock, an hour north of Edmonton. We'd drive to Super Store in Edmonton to stock up on groceries every few months. On the way back we'd stop at St. Albert and get McDonalds and go to the mall. I wanted to buy EVERYTHING inside of San Fransisco's store!

    Awww, thanks for this; my dearest friend recently moved to Stony Plain. I'm on Vancouver Island and I DO NOT FLY, so I'm missing my friend very much. It's nice and heartwarming to see the beautiful town she's living in now. In fact, I'm a little jealous; Stony Plain is beautiful. Maybe there's a road trip in my future 🤔. Thanks✌️🇨🇦

    Nice! I hope you have a follow up video for the Greater YYC area.
  • @micheldwson
    Great video. Shocked you didn’t recommend Jack’s Burgers, as my mates, all of us born and bred St Albertans, love it to bits.
  • @seconduser1809
    Great video, loved watching it! Haven't been to Jack's Drive in since I was a kid. Nice to know it's still around. Regarding Sherwood Park - I believe it's still classified as a hamlet rather than a city, which is of course absurd. Doing that allows it to still get revenue from the nearby refineries which are part of Strathcona County, which it would lose if it left the county and became an independent city. Or at least that's how I recall it being explained to me several years ago.

    You should also do a video about the history of Edmonton. That would be an interesting one too.
