Different Areas in Lethbridge, West, North and South Lethbridge
For real estate, Lethbridge is divided up into 3 areas. North, West, and South Lethbridge. South is the most popular and the most expensive. Most of the downtown is in the South, and so is the hospital. The more expensive newer developments are in the South, near the newly made big box stores like Costco, and Superstore. The south is generally 5-10% more than similar homes in the West or North. Coulee Creek, Fairmont, Tudor Estates, Park Royal, London Road and Sandstone, are areas in South Lethbridge.
The North side of town has the least expensive homes in Lethbridge, starting in the low 100's. But these homes are about 100 years old as well. There are a few newer areas in the outskirts of the North called Uplands, and Legacy ridge. The industrial area is in North Lethbridge.
The West side was built after the establishment of the University of Lethbridge 40 years ago, so there are no homes on the West side more than 40 years old. It is popular with University students, and people who work at the University. There are many parks, walking paths, schools, and churches on the west side. Some people do not like the west side because of the lack of amenities, (not too much shopping or dining), and because you have to drive up the west side hill to get to the west side. Areas in West Lethbridge include Riverstone, Heritage, Ridgewood, Copperwood, Mountain Heights, West Highlands, Canyon Crest, Paradise Canyon, and Sunridge.
