Northwest Edmonton Real Estate:
Community of Cumberland
Cumberland, a vibrant neighbourhood within Northwest Edmonton's Palisades district, is a haven for residents seeking convenience and an abundance of amenities. The area, established in the 1990s and further developed in the early 2000s, offers an extensive array of detached homes, making it an ideal choice for families looking for an all-encompassing community. Historically, all of the land in the Palisades area belonged to the Hudson's Bay Company (HBC), leading to the naming of neighbourhoods after the company's fur-trading posts. In the case of Cumberland, the community is named after the Cumberland House, which served as the HBC's initial inland trading post.
