Ormsby Place is a quaint and welcoming neighborhood that offers a unique blend of natural beauty, community spirit, and modern amenities. Conveniently situated in West Edmonton, Ormsby is easily accessible from major roadways like Anthony Henday Drive and Whitemud Drive making the area a suitable choice for both commuters and those who prefer a tranquil suburban lifestyle.

The neighborhood boasts well-maintained 70s and 80s constructed properties and beautiful tree-lined streets, creating an inviting and picturesque atmosphere. Ormsby is a popular neighborhood for young families with its multiple green space areas for children to enjoy their time, as well as the centrally located Ormsby Elementary school.
